Early years

A native of Winnetka, Illinois, Andrew played high school basketball at New Trier High School. [2] Because of her talent for rebounding and blocking shots, she earned the nickname the "human eraser." [3] She was named to the Chicago Tribune's All-State team in 1989. [4]

University of Michigan

In the fall of 1989, Andrew enrolled at the University of Michigan. She played for the Michigan Wolverines women's basketball team from 1989 to 1993. [5]

As a freshman during the 1989-90 season, Andrew broke Michigan's single-season record with 64 blocked shots and helped lead the Wolverines to a 20-10 record. [6] The season was the program's first 20-win season and the first in which the Wolverines received an invitation to play in the NCAA Tournament. [7] [8]

As a sophomore during the 1990-91 season, Andrew broke her own record with 88 shot blocks. [9] By January 1991, and after only 42 games with the Wolverines, Andrew blocked her 112th career shot to become the leading shot-blocker in the history of the Michigan women's basketball program. [10] Andrew credited her talent for blocks to "long arms", while Michigan head coach Bud VanDeWege noted: "She doesn't do it with great leaping ability -- many times she doesn't even leave the ground to block a shot -- so it's mostly the timing. It's a real gift to have." [10]

As a junior during the 1991-92 season, Andrew again broke her own record with 136 blocks—a total that remains 62 more than any other player in the program's history. [9] Her 136 blocks also stood as the Big Ten Conference record until 2007. [11] Andrew also led the 1991-92 Wolverines with 522 points, a total that remains the sixth highest in program history, and 278 rebounds (9.9 per game). [9] In December 1991, Andrew had her nose broken while making a rebound against the Bowling Green Falcons. [12] On February 28, 1992, she scored a career-high 36 points with 16 field goals against Indiana. [13]

As a senior during the 1992-93 season, Andrew established Michigan's single-season records with 311 rebounds and an average of 11.5 rebounds per game. [9] She also led the team in points (514) and blocks (79). [6] On December 28, 1992, she had a career-high 21 rebounds against Bucknell. [14] Two days later, she had a career-high 10 shot blocks in a game against the Old Dominion Lady Monarchs. (She had four games in which she blocked nine shots.) [14] At the end of the 1992-93 season, Andrew was selected as an Academic All-Big Ten Conference player. [15]

Andrew remains Michigan's all-time career leader with 367 blocks. [16] Her 368 blocks also stood as the Big Ten Conference record for 14 years until it was broken in 2007 by Jessica Davenport. [17] Andrews also holds Michigan's single-season records with 311 rebounds during the 1992-93 season and 136 blocks during the 1991-92 season. [16] In four years at Michigan, Andrew scored 1,647 points, which at the time was second only to Diane Dietz. She currently ranks as the third highest scorer in the program's history. [18] Her career total of 701 field goals also ranks second highest in program history. [19] Her 928 rebounds stood as the Michigan program record for 29 years until it was surpassed by Naz Hillmon in 2022. [20]
