La Salle's Chrissie Donahue Chrissie Donahue,
the only La Salle Explorer to lead the team in scoring three times,
also led LSU in rebounding three times. In her four years, La Salle
never won less than 19 games in a season and she wound up her career
with 1,818 points (second all-time, only 57 points fewer than Jennifer
Cole), 914 rebounds (third all-time) and 225 assists (third all-time)
in 115 starts (all-time leader). Donahue was always causing such problems
for the opposition, she went to the foul line often. She made 80 percent
of her career attempts and her 581 free throws made are a school record.
As a sophomore she was the Big 5 Most Valuable Player and she was three
times honored as first-team all-Big 5.
