1985 Second Team AWSF
After averaging just 5.8 points per game as a freshman, Diane Arpert became the Lycoming College women’s basketball team’s go-to player for the next three years, helping her leave the school with nearly every scoring record. As a sophomore, her scoring average leaped eight points and then as a junior, her average jumped eight points again as she set a school-record that still stands with a 22.9 season scoring average. On Valentine’s Day of 1984, she added a school-record 44 points against Misericordia, helping her earn Second Team American Women’s Sports Federation All-American honors. She duplicated the honor as a senior after averaging 20.7 points per game and she became the first women’s player in school history to reach 1,000 career points. At the end of the season, the sociology major won the school’s Pocahontas Award as the most outstanding female athlete. She was inducted into the College’s Athletics Hall of Fame in 1990.
