Mikaela Shiffrin is 100% the best in skiing’s World Cup history book.

Shiffrin’s record-extending 100th career World Cup race win fulfilled a quest put on hold by a serious crash in November.

Back to racing in her favored slalom event, Shiffrin kept and added to her first-run lead to finish 0.61 seconds ahead of Zrinka Ljutic. Shiffrin’s U.S. teammate Paula Moltzan was third.

Shiffrin also tied an all-time World Cup record for men and women, as her 155th career top-3 finish on the podium matched Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark.

Yin wins LPGA Thailand tournament >> Angel Yin etched her name into women’s tour history with a record-breaking victory at the LPGA Thailand tournament, securing her second tour title with an all-time low winning score of 260 at Siam Country Club Pattaya Old Course.

The world No. 17 delivered a flawless final-round 65 to finish at 28-under-par, edging Japanese rookie Akie Iwai by a single stroke.

Her winning total bettered the previous LPGA record of 261 set by Annika Sorenstam in Arizona in 2001. Yin also rewrote the tournament’s 72-hole record of 262, surpassing the previous mark held by Nanna Koerstz Madsen and Xiyu Lin from 2022.

Women’s basketball

No. 1 Notre Dame knocked out >> Zoe Brooks had a career-high 33 points to help No. 13 N.C. State push past top-ranked Notre Dame 104-95 in a double-overtime classic, ending the Fighting Irish’s 19-game winning streak while keeping alive their hopes to share the Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season title.

Brooks also had 10 rebounds for the Wolfpack (22-5, 14-2 ACC), while Aziaha James added 20 points. That included a highlight-reel transition layup from James in which she took the ball around her back to change hands and avoid a strip attempt by Olivia Miles, a smooth sequence that had the packed Reynolds Coliseum erupting in a roar.

No. 3 UCLA escapes Iowa with win >> Elina Aarnisalo made two free throws with 3.8 seconds remaining to give No. 3 UCLA a 67-65 comeback win over Iowa.

Lauren Betts had 22 points and 12 rebounds for the Bruins (26-1, 14-1 Big Ten), who trailed by 12 points twice in the third quarter before rallying.

Iowa tied it at 65 when Lucy Olsen made three free throws with 6 seconds left. Aarnisalo was fouled when she was tripped by Olsen after she had fallen to the court trying to defend.

Men’s basketball

Arizona State’s leading scorer out >> Arizona State’s leading scorer BJ Freeman is no longer with the program because of conduct detrimental to the team, a team spokesman confirmed.

The dismissal follows a turbulent stretch for Freeman, who was ejected in games against Colorado and Arizona during conference play. He was also suspended for the team’s road loss to Oklahoma State on Feb. 9.

The 6-foot-6 senior is averaging 13.7 points over 25 games. He last played on Tuesday in an 80-65 loss to No. 5 Houston, scoring 17 points.

Hockey

Ovechkin scores 3, 13 goals away from record >> Alex Ovechkin scored his 880th, 881st and 882nd career goals to record a hat trick and move 13 goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s NHL record and give Washington a 7-3 victory over Connor McDavid and Edmonton, moving back atop the league standings.

Ovechkin beat Calvin Pickard clean with a wrist shot just before the midway mark of the second period off a pass from linemate Dylan Strome for his first of the game. He got his second on the power play 10 minutes later and put the puck into an empty net with 2:38 left for his third.
