PHILADELPHIA ­ One of the keys to the success of the St. Joseph's women's basketball team in the early 1990s, Audrey Codner (Philadelphia, PA./Cardinal Dougherty) will be inducted into the Philadelphia Big Five Hall of Fame on Saturday, January 27, during halftime ceremonies of St. Joseph's game against Pennsylvania at The Palestra. A four-year standout for SJU, Codner helped to lead the Crimson and Gray to four straight City Series titles, including three outright crowns. She twice garnered all-Big Five honors during her career. Codner's best seasons on Hawk Hill came during her sophomore and junior years. As a sophomore in 1991-92, she earned first team all-Big Five and second team all-Atlantic 10 honors after averaging 16.0 points and 7.0 rebounds per game. During her junior year she was a second team all-Big Five choice and third team all-A-10 pick. That year she averaged 12.1 points and 4.2 boards. As a senior, she was a preseason first team all-A-10 selection, but sacrificed personal success for the good of the team, averaging 6.0 points and 3.1 caroms. The Hawks, however, went on to earn a NCAA Tournament berth, SJU's first since 1990. Codner concluded her career as the Hawks seventh all-time leading scorer (1,092 points) and tenth all-time leading rebounder (491 rebounds). She presently ranks 14th in each category, respectively. After graduating from SJU, she went onto play professionally in both Sweden and England.
