To watch one history-making athlete chase a career scoring record is extraordinary. To watch two athletes do it nearly in-step is extraordinarily special.

Crosby-Ironton’s Tori Oehrlein and Providence Academy’s Maddyn Greenway are both on pace to break Minnesota’s girls basketball career scoring record by early February.

The figure to crack is 5,060 points, set by Braham’s Rebekah Dahlman in 2013.

This season, Oehrlein is averaging 34.4 points per game through 16 games played, while Greenway is averaging 32.5 points per game through 12 games played, as of Thursday, Jan. 15.

The pair’s current totals as of Jan. 15 are:

• Oehrlein: 4,978 points

Oehrlein recently became the first girls basketball player in state history to record back-to-back 50 point games, according to high school basketball historian Matt Pedersen. She put up a career-high 51 against Hinckley-Finalyson on Jan. 6, then 50 points against East Central on Jan. 8.

Her latest performance was a 34-point, 23-rebound outing against Monticello on Thursday, Jan. 15.

• Greenway: 4,874 points

Greenway dropped 33 to help Providence Academy beat Minnehaha Academy 96-57 on Jan. 6. She then scored 38 in a 97-48 over Holy Family on Jan. 8. Her 42 points in a 99-58 win over Rochester Lourdes were a season high, followed by 30 points to beat St. Francis on Jan. 16.

Should Oehrlein and Greenway continue scoring at their average rate this season, Oehrlein will reach Dahlman’s total on Thursday, Jan. 22 at Pine City. For Greenway, that projected game lands on Monday, Feb. 2, hosting Andover.

Those dates are projections based on averages and may be updated as their scoring pace changes. You can view Crosby-Ironton’s schedule here and Providence Academy’s schedule here.

Records already rewritten

Both of the senior point guards’ names are already scrawled in the state record books.

Greenway is a Kentucky commit, the reigning Strib Varsity All-Minnesota Girls Basketball Player of the Year and a four-time Class 2A basketball champion. She holds the state record for assists in a career (1,113 as of early January, and counting) and career points scored at the state tournament (439).

This past fall, playing soccer, Greenway even broke the state’s single-season and career goal-scoring records, too.

Oehrlein, a Gophers commit and no stranger to quadruple-doubles, owns Minnesota’s all-time rebounding record (2,224 boards as of early January, and counting) and the single-game assist record record (21). She helped Crosby-Ironton reach its first Class 2A title game last year, facing off against Providence Academy.

In Minnesota, the pair are the only two girls basketball players to have reached 1,000 career points, assists and rebounds. They are also two of just four players in the 4,000-point club, alongside Dahlman and Minnehaha Academy alum Addi Mack, who is in the midst of a standout freshman season at Maryland.

When Dahlman set the existing state record, she eclipsed 3,888 career points set by eventual WNBA first-round draft pick Tayler Hill, who graduated from Minneapolis South in 2009.
