In this story:


The Iowa State Cyclones were taking on the Utah Utes on Tuesday night with their eyes set on trying to bounce back from a bad game against the BYU Cougars. However, they were also awaiting a star player to set a new program record. 

It has been a fantastic campaign for the Cyclones, and to little surprise, they have had some fantastic performances from players. As Iowa State has emerged as one of the best teams in the country, some of their players have really taken a massive step forward. 

One of the key contributors to the team has been junior forward Milan Momcilovic. The talented shooter has really improved, and that has resulted in him setting a new program record. Against the Utes, Momcilovic was able to set the single-season record for most three-pointers made. 

Dedric Willoughby has been the holder of this record with 102 made three-pointers in the 1996-97 season, but Momcilovic was able to surpass him on Tuesday night. This is a massive accomplishment for the junior, and he has been one of the best shooters in the country this year. 

With a few games still to go this year, Momcilovic is going to have a chance to really extend his new record. The talented junior has been a key player for the team and has established himself as arguably the best shooter in the country.
