Shandra Maxwell owns almost every APSU women’s basketball scoring and rebounding record. A star during an struggling era for the Lady Govs’s program, she was a two-time All-OVC first-team selection (1987-88, 1989-90) sandwiched around a 1988-89 second-team pick. She also was to the All-OVC freshmen team in 1986-87. Despite constant double-team attention during her last three seasons, she is not only the school’s all-time leading scorer (1805 points/19.8 ppg) but has three of the four top single-season scoring averages—23.9 ppg (first/1987-88), 20.6 ppg (third/1986-87) and 19.3 ppg (fourth/1989-90). Maxwell is the Lady Govs’ all-time leader in field goals made (767), with all four single-season totals ranking in the Lady Govs Top 10. She also is first in career field goals attempted (1470). Her .522 field-goal percentage ranks third career-wise while her 1987-88 (.587) and 1986-87 (.560) percentages are one-two as Lady Govs’ single-season marks. She also is APSU’s all-time leader in rebounding (950/10.4 rpg), again with all four single-season averages ranking the Lady Govs’ Top 10. She averaged more than 10 rebounds per game in three of her four seasons.
