(13/12) K-State collected its seventh straight home win by downing Eastern Illinois, 90-43, but the highlight of Tuesday’s night game came in the third quarter as Ayoka Lee broke K-State’s career scoring record.

Lee registered 15 points on 7-of-10 shooting, making her final seven shots of the night including the record-setting layup with 6:59 to play in the third quarter.

With the career scoring record of 2,336 points, Lee becomes the fifth player since 1980 to hold the K-State career scoring record, surpassing Kendra Wecker (2001-05; 2,333 points) who held the mark for 19 years. Lee now ranks 10th in career scoring for Big 12 history.

Lee’s journey to the K-State scoring record began on November 8, 2019, against Omaha, as she registered her first career point on a free throw with 8:27 to play in the first quarter and finished her debut with 11 points.

In addition to setting the school record for career points, Lee also holds the school career mark for scoring average (19.1 ppg), most career games with 40 or more points (2), most career games with 30 or more points (14), most points scored in a junior season (727) and the NCAA Division I, Big 12 and school records for points in a single game (61).

Sophomore Zyanna Walker, who assisted on the record-setting basket, finished the night with her first career double-double by notching a game-high 16 points and 10 assists. She also added four steals and two blocks.

Senior Jaelyn Glenn was the third starter in double figures by adding 11 points, which included 3-of-4 from long range and also hauled in six rebounds and three steals.

Sophomore Taryn Sides (12 points) and senior Kennedy Taylor (11 points) paced a K-State bench that tallied 36 points. Taylor added seven rebounds, while Sides collected four.
