Dana Leonard’s Northwestern profile screams fearless floor general with a deep-range edge
Dana Leonard is best remembered at Northwestern as a confident, scrappy guard who could run the offense and punish defenses from three-point range; in the 2000 season, she averaged 9.9 points per game, ranked second on the team in assists at 2.88 per game, and led NU in made threes while also finishing third in the Big Ten in three-pointers made and second in three-point percentage (.364).[5] Her game stood out for leadership, reading the floor, and relentless hustle for loose balls, which makes her the kind of guard coaches trust when they want poise, spacing, and competitive fire in one package.[8]
