11/8/2022: Per Her Hoop Stats, the No. 14 Ohio State Buckeyes forced the No. 5 Tennessee Lady Volunteers into their most turnovers (29) since March 3, 2013 (31). Jacy Sheldon had eight steals. Ohio State won the game, which was also historically significant:
Prior to No. 5 Tennessee’s 87-75 loss to No. 14 Ohio State tonight, AP top 5 teams had won 69 consecutive season openers when playing a team either unranked or ranked outside the Top 5. The previous loss was by No. 3 Maryland to unranked TCU in 2008.

11/13/2022: Ohio State forced 35 turnovers to give them 64 on the week (two games). Sheldon registered a program-record-tying 11 steals. Lisa Cline is the other Buckeye to record that many steals in a single game — she did it on Dec. 30, 1988.
11/7/2022: The No. 16 LSU Tigers’ 125 points were the most in program history, as were their 44 made free throws. They have now scored 343 points through three games, which hadn’t been done in NCAAW Division I in the last 20 years. Maryland transfer Angel Reese leads the team with 64 points.
11/11/2022: The No. 25 Michigan Wolverines matched the most turnovers forced (36) by a single team in a single game at Crisler Center, their home arena.
11/10/2022: The No. 4 Iowa Hawkeyes’ 115 points were the most in program history.
11/13/2022: Jakia Brown-Turner of the No. 10 NC State Wolfpack made it to 1,000 career points. In the win over the Mount St. Mary’s Mountaineers, the Wolfpack broke the record for rebounds in a game under Wes Moore, who has been their coach since the 2013-14 season, with 64.
11/7/2022: Cayla King of the No. 13 Virginia Tech Hokies drained nine triples — the most by one player in a single game in program history. This the season after Hokie Aisha Sheppard, now a member of the WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces, became the most prolific 3-point shooter in ACC history. King, a true senior who has spent her whole career at Virginia Tech, made 66 threes at a 38.6 percent clip as a sophomore and 67 at a 39.2 percent clip as a junior. On Monday she was 9-of-16. She finished with 33 points, outshining her team’s big three (Elizabeth Kitley, Ashley Owusu and Taylor Soule), which came into the season with so much hype. The Hokies defeated Mount St. Mary’s 101-45.
11/7/2022: The No. 15 Oklahoma Sooners dropped 38 points in the first quarter (a program record for a single quarter) and dished out 19 assists in the first half (a program record for a single half).
11/11/2022: Oklahoma had six players make two or more threes, a program first.
