The Wayne State Athletic Department has compiled a list of the top 21 women's basketball players in school history. The players and their credentials are listed below and the attached pdf, along with the years they participated.

In order to narrow the field to the 10 best players of all time, WSU Athletics is looking for feedback from fans and alumni. All ballots must list 10 different individuals in order to be valid. The 10 best players will be honored on January 24, 2008. Write-in candidates are allowed.

Ballots will be available at WSU home basketball games or can be e-mailed to jeff.weiss@wayne.edu
