Thursday night against Notre Dame, Tech’s All-ACC shooting guard Aisha Sheppard knocked down four threes and became the program’s all-time leading 3-point scorer with 273 career triples.
The Alexandria, Va., native owns the VT single-season mark of 84, which she set last season, and is filling it up at a historic rate in her senior campaign. She leads the nation with 54 threes and is tops in threes per game among players who have participated in 11 games or more.
Sheppard is co-holder of the VT single-game record for threes with eight, a feat she has accomplished twice. She has already eclipsed the 1,000-point mark and ranks 14th on the school’s list of all-time leading scorers with 1,267 points. With the season still being played out, she will continue to move up on the list.
Sheppard ranks 10th all-time in the ACC for three-pointers made.
