Verdict
2-point field goal inside the arc; 3-point field goal beyond the 22'1.75" arc; 1-point free throw; Most points wins; tied at end of regulation = 5-min OT periods until winner
Why people argue about this
People often assume that a 2-point shot is worth just one point if made from inside the arc in NCAA Women's Basketball, which leads to misunderstandings about scoring opportunities and game strategies. The confusion arises because they overlook the fact that all field goals within the key (arc) are indeed worth two points.
