BETSY BRUCE ('96): A power forward from Dover, N.H., Bruce led the Plymouth State women's basketball team in scoring three straight years from 1992-95 under head coach Nancy Feldman.  She became only the third woman in school history to score more than 1,000 points in a career, and after breaking the school scoring record in 1995, her career total of 1,264 points still ranks third on the all-time list.

After leading the team with 14.0 points a game as a sophomore, Bruce averaged a career-best 17.3 points her junior year, leading the team to an 18-9 record.  She led a balanced team in scoring her senior year with 10.9 points a game, helping the team to a then-school record 21 victories (21-7) and the only NCAA Tournament berth in school history.

Bruce was named First Team All-Little East Conference following her junior and senior seasons after earning honorable mention as a sophomore. She helped her teams to a combined 64-42 record in her four years.
