HELENA - Carroll College's Jolene Fuzesy finished her college career in the NAIA Division I women's tournament Saturday as the most accurate 3-point shooter in the history of college basketball.
Fuzesy, of Malta, connected on 464 of 899 3-point attempts for a 51.6 percentage.
She moved ahead of Scott Martin of NCAA Division II Rollins College, who connected on 236 of 460 for 51.3 percent of his 3-pointers from 1988 to 1992.
Fuzesy fell just short of the all time record for made 3-pointers by a women's basketball player. Her 464 are just three off the record set by Kiely Schork of NAIA Division I Loyola University of Louisiana from 2003 to 2007. Schork took 1,382 3-point shots in her career, good for 33.8 percent.
