Day, Bergen To Be Inducted
Into Big South Hall of Fame

Day completed his Radford tenure as the NCAA Division I leader in three-point field goals made in a career made with 401. He departed as Radford's all-time leading scorer with 2,027 points, a mark that ranks second all-time in the Big South. He is one of only two Big South players to score 2,000 career points. Day led the nation in three-point baskets per game with 4.03 per contest in 1991-92, and earned All-Big South honors during each of his four seasons (1989-1993) at RU. He averaged 17.3 points per game for his career, and his offensive prowess helped Radford to back-to-back 20-win seasons in 1990-91 and 1991-92. Day led the Highlanders to their first regular-season Conference title in 1991-92.

Bergen's competitive drive fueled four consecutive Big South basketball championship teams from 1990-94. She was twice the Tournament MVP (1993, 1994) and finished her career with 1,714 points (third all-time at RU and eighth in Big South history). She also ranks among the career leaders in steals (244) and games played (117). Bergen led the Highlanders in scoring twice, including a 21.3 scoring average as a senior, the second-highest in school history. She was Big South Rookie of the Year in 1990-91, and became one of the first three-sport stars at RU, lettering in cross country and softball after her basketball career. She was the first two-sport All-Conference performer in the Big South, earning League honors in basketball twice (1992-94) and in cross country in 1994, finishing as RU's leader in five of six meets. Bergen also served an assistant coach at member institution UNC Asheville before taking a job at West Florida, where she is now in her sixth season as head women's basketball coach. During her tenure at UWF, the Argonauts have won two Gulf South Conference Eastern Division titles.

Day, Bergen and three other individuals (Coastal Carolina softball standouts Sara Graziano and Michelle Minton, and former Charleston Southern cross country and track coach Jim Settle) will be inducted in June during a special ceremony as part of the Conference's annual spring meetings in Hilton Head, S.C.

The Big South Hall of Fame was created in 2003 as part of the League's 20th Anniversary celebration, and now totals 19 former Big South Conference student-athletes, coaches, administrators and contributors, including Radford's Dante Washington (Men's Soccer) and Stephanie Howard (Women's Basketball). Radford has the second most inductees (four) of all Conference schools and the more basketball players (three) than any school.
