Hall of Fame
In just two seasons, Brenda Brown solidified herself as one of the best women's basketball players in Bethune-Cookman history, seeing action for the Cats from 1983-84. Known as "Downtown" Brenda Brown, she became the school's fifth AIAW All-American in 1983, joining fellow Bethune-Cookman Hall of Famer Marcia Flagler on the list of All-America award winners. In 1984, Brown was named to the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) all-conference first team, on her way to earning back-to-back appearances on the league's all-tournament teams in 1983 and '84, respectively. To date, she still sits second in the Wildcats Women's Basketball record book for career rebounds (1,227) and ranks in the top 15 for scoring all-time as well. Throughout her career, Brown averaged 15.4 points and 11.6 rebounds per game, all while shooting a blistering 42.3 percent from the field. She still ranks fifth all-time in MEAC history in career rebounds.
