MILWAUKEE — Jordan King just keeps moving up the all-time leader list at Marquette.
The Hononegah graduate moved into sixth place on the all-time scoring list on Saturday with 11 points in an 86-60 rout of Xavier.
King now has 1,754 career points, passing Kristen Maskala, who had 1,745 points from 1991-94. She is the only player in program history to have over 1,700 career points and over 500 career assists.
She moved into ninth on the all-time 3-pointer list with 156.

Perhaps most impressive, King has started in all 151 career games she has played in with the Golden Eagles to rank second all-time. She ranks sixth in the nation among active players.
