No one will ever top what Breanna Stewart did in college at UConn, winning four national championships and the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA Tournament each time.
Her success sets her apart as the Greatest Of All Time, at least in the eyes of nearly a dozen players and coaches at a USA Basketball camp this month. When asked who they believe tops their list of college players during the last 50 years of the women’s poll era, Stewart was their choice.
“That’s unheard of,” said Kahleah Copper, who starred at Rutgers at the same time Stewart was dominating at UConn. “That’s super tough. I’m thinking about someone’s individual success, but also they had to have success as a team. It’s not just about your individual successes.”
