A 2005 Siena Athletics Hall of Fame inductee, Halker was a two-time MAAC Player of the Year (1998, 1999), and the only three-time First Team All-MAAC selection in program history (1997-99). The 1995-96 MAAC Rookie of the Year, she holds Siena’s all-time career records for both rebounds (1,122) and rebounds per game (10.0). Halker also set program single-season benchmarks for field goals made (263 in 1998-99), rebounds (341 in 1996-97), and rebounds per game (12.2 in 1996-97), and is the single-game record holder for rebounds with 24 vs. Canisius on January 23, 1997.

Siena’s second all-time leading scorer with 2,021 points, Halker joins last year’s Siena MAAC Hall of Fame Honor Roll inductee Laura (Menty) Menges ’08 as the only two players in program history to lead the team in scoring in each of their four seasons donning the Green and Gold. The Glandorf, Ohio standout ranks second in school history in field goals made (850) and seventh in both field goal percentage (.513) and free throws made (320). Halker scored a program MAAC Tournament record 34 points in the 1998 Quarterfinals vs. Rider and capped her brilliant career with a 27-point, 12-rebound performance to lead the Saints over Georgetown in the school’s first-ever Division I national postseason tournament appearance in the 1999 WNIT.

Halker played professionally for two years in Luxembourg and Israel before beginning a highly decorated career as a Division I assistant coach. The associate head coach at the University of Michigan, she has helped guide the Wolverines to national postseason tournament appearances in each of her first six seasons with the program, highlighted by a WNIT Championship in 2017. Halker previously served as an assistant coach at both Princeton (2007-12) and Indiana State (2004-06), after first entering the ranks with a two-year stint on the sidelines for the Saints (2002-04), which she helped lead to the program’s most recent WNIT appearance in 2003.
