Providence Academy junior guard Maddyn Greenway became the fourth girls basketball player in state history to reach 4,000 career points when she scored 38 points in the Lions' 101-68 victory over St. Michael-Albertville on Saturday at St. Michael-Albertville.

Greenway, who has committed to play for Kentucky, went into the game with 3,977 points. She scored her 4,000th point on a layup in the closing seconds of the first half. The Lions, who improved to 19-0 on the season and are ranked No. 1 in Class 2A, led the Knights, ranked No. 7 in Class 4A, 55-37 at halftime.

Greenway is averaging 32.2 points per game. Her season high is 51 points. Her career high — set last season — is 60 points.

Greenway is the third to reach the milestone in the past five weeks. Minnehaha Academy senior guard Addison Mack, who has committed to Maryland, surpassed the mark Dec. 28. Crosby-Ironton junior guard Tori Oehrlein, who has committed to play for the Gophers, went over 4,000 points Jan. 28.

Rebekah Dahlman of Braham is the all-time leading scorer in girls state history with 5,060 points.
