Arguably the finest female basketball player to attend the University of Miami, Frances Savage overcame a serious knee injury to become Miami's second all-time leading scorer (2,358 points). The 5-9 forward from Fort Lauderdale led the 1991-92 team to 30 straight wins, a BIG EAST title and the NCAA Sweet Sixteen while garnering, among many awards, Kodak/WBCA First-Team All-America honors as well as being named the Sports Illustrated Player of the Year. A 1992 graduate, Savage lays claim to numerous UM women's basketball records including first in scoring average (23.2 per game), first in free throw percentage (.798) and number one and two in points per season (742/743). Her jersey has been retired by the University.
