JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The crowd stood with arms raised when Wofford guard Fletcher Magee got the ball on the first possession of the second half, anticipating this would be his history-making moment.

Magee calmly made his 505th career 3-pointer, setting an NCAA Division I record in the process. The senior from Orlando, Florida, with the smooth shot made seven 3s total and scored 24 points in an 84-68 win over Seton Hall in the first round of the NCAA tournament Thursday night, helping the Terriers to their 21st straight win.

But it was not just a history-making day for Magee. It was a history-making day for Wofford, which advanced in the NCAA tournament for the first time in school history.

"When I hit it, I definitely noticed the crowd was louder than just the normal 3 in the second half," Magee said. "But I feel like I didn't get too caught up in it. It was a close game. I was focused on doing whatever I could to help us continue to stretch our lead and win down the stretch."

Magee now has 509 career 3s, bypassing the mark of 504 set by Travis Bader in 2014 at Oakland.

Known for an unrelenting work ethic that keeps him in the gym late into the night, Magee set the record with a large contingent of friends and family in attendance, who were able to make the roughly two-hour drive from Orlando.

Going into the game, he needed to make three 3-pointers to break the mark. Magee knew he was on the cusp of a record but says he tried not to focus on it. Once he got the record, there was no let-up. Magee's crucial 3-pointer with 3:12 left put the game out of reach.
