Donna Margine held practically every record in school history upon her graduation in 1981, including the top scoring mark with 1,558 points. More than 30 years after her graduation, Margine still ranks among the top 10 scorers in school history, currently placing eighth. Her 16.9 career scoring average is second best among Fairfield student-athletes. A team captain, Margine remains the most accurate shooter in school history, leaving campus with a .556 field goal percentage (545 made, 949 attempts). She is one of only two Fairfield women’s basketball student-athletes to average better than 20 points per game in a season, registering 20.5 points every forty minutes during the 1978-79 campaign. All of these achievements were reached at a time in women's basketball before the introduction of the three point shot, and the use of the women's smaller ball.
