It was definitely a case of the hometown kid making good and the best part was that he did it before a hometown crowd. On Feb. 18, 1989, UA All-American Sean Elliott broke the Pac-10 career scoring record with 2,326 points. The record-breaking point came at McKale on a free throw in a game against the UCLA Bruins. The Wildcats won 102-64. He broke the record held by UCLA's Lew Alcindor, who later became Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Following the trophy presentation, Coach Lute Olson did his best to muss up Elliott's hair. Read about Elliott's early sports career in Tales From the Morgue.
