Royals Hall of Fame
Class of 1994
1990-1994
Leslie Curtin, a 1994 graduate rewrote the record books for women’s basketball during her tenure. An outstanding student-athlete, Curtin attained several individual season records, some of which still stand today. She remains number eight in school history in total points scored in a season with 467 in her senior season. Averaging 17.3 points per game during her senior season puts her at number seven for her career. In addition she is also number seven in points per game with an average of 17.3 which was also during her senior season. She didn’t just score, she also was an extremely willing passer as she finished both number eight and number ten her junior and senior seasons in total assists with 102 and 100 respectively.
In addition to spectacular individual season efforts, Curtin also left a lasting impact on Queens’ career record books. After playing four years for the Royals Curtin was able to finish first in assists and free throws made, second in total points, number five in points per game, number two in field goals made, and number five in total rebounds. She was also named to the NCAA Division II All-American Honorable Mention Team at the end of her senior season.
Residing in Charlotte, Curtin’s ability to not only score, but also be an outstanding passer and an assertive rebounder will leave her as one of the most prominent women’s basketball players in Queens’ history.
