Brianna Turner bookmarked her "active" ND career in the NCAA finals. (Unfortunately, both ended in losses, but she was a major reason in getting the Irish that far. 
- As a freshman she, earned spot on NCAA Final Four All-Tournament Team after averaging 15.5 points, 9.0 rebounds and 2.0 blocks with a .591 field-goal percentage in the semi's and finals. 
- And she, of course, was on the team that recently lost to Baylor.

- In her junior year, she was -- perhaps -- having her best year, having started 35 straight games and averaging some 29 minutes per game, but got injured in the final minutes of a win over Purdue. The Irish wiped out Ohio State in the next round but came up short (by a point, of course) against a tough Stanford team (that's probably redundant). 
- And in her "regular" senior year, she was part of the "gang of four" with knee injuries that watched the Irish get to and win the title.

Interestingly, the two other Irish on those rosters who actively played and made the Final game twice were her "co-forwards," Kat Westbeld and Jessica Shepard. In the year Turner was out, Westbeld and Shepard teamed up (very well).
