A living legend? In Boston College standards, yes. Carolyn Swords is the only athlete in the Boston College women's basketball program to have broken the 2,000-point mark and the 1,000-rebound mark on top of a magnitude of other athletic honors during her time at BC.
During her illustrious careers as an Eagle, Swords was a five-time ACC Player of the Week, a member of the All-ACC Rookie team, a three-time member of All-ACC Conference Teams, led the squad in blocks for all four years, led the NCAA with the highest field goal percentage for three seasons and was named Eagle of the Year following her senior season in 2011 – just to name a few examples.
