Teresa Vondrasek was a main contributor to an Oakland University women’s basketball team that was the best in the state in the early 1980's. Teresa was the team’s top rebounder and a rugged defensive player. Teresa is in Oakland’s career top 10 in seven different categories. She scored 1,147 points and grabbed 1,127 rebounds, making her just one of four players in school history to go over the 1,00 mark in both categories. As a sophomore, she led the state in rebounding averaging 12.1 per game. Teresa was on the All-Region choice as a junior. Her Oakland teams had a combined record of 87-29, winning a pair of league titles and advancing to the NCAA Tournament twice, including a national semi-final berth in 1982. Teresa also excels in softball and judo. While at Oakland, Teresa led the Pioneer softball team in hitting with a .370 average in 1980. Last year she was named Most Valuable Player in leading her team to the Class B National Fast Pitch Championship. Teresa has also won four gold medals in judo at the United States Olympic Festival.
