ELSAH, Ill. - On Saturday, February 12th, during halftime of the women's basketball game, former Principia College women's basketball player, Laura Saucedo, was inducted into the SLIAC Hall of Fame.

While Saucedo played all four years of her college experience, Principia did not join the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC) until her sophomore year.

Saucedo was a three-year standout for the Principia women's basketball squad from 1991-94. She was a three-time First Team All-Conference selection and is ranked second in SLIAC history in points with 1,678. She led the SLIAC in total points and points per game in all three of her seasons, and Saucedo still holds the top two SLIAC points per game averages (27.0 in 1993-94 and 22.2 in 1992-93). She is also tied for most points in a game (42) and holds the top spot for most field goals in a SLIAC game (17)."

Along with the fans, Saucedo was joined by Athletic Director Lee Ellis, a Jersey County Journal reporter, and SLIAC Commissioner, Will Wolper.
