A rising star just joined college basketball’s most elite scorekeepers — and she’s only getting started.
In Vanderbilt’s 81–68 win over Virginia, Mikayla Blakes delivered a dazzling 28-point performance, becoming one of only nine players in NCAA women’s basketball history to reach 1,000 career points in 42 games or fewer, placing her alongside names like Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell.
Her coach described it best:
“He gave her everything.”
Blakes plays with a blend of talent, fearlessness, and heart that elevates the Commodores every time she steps on the court. This shirt captures her signature driving pose, wrapped in Vanderbilt’s iconic black-and-gold, celebrating the new face of Commodores basketball.
She’s not just scoring — she’s rewriting Vanderbilt history.
