Jenna Graber, Class of 2002

Jenna Graber blended strength and athleticism to become a picture of efficiency as one of the purest shooters from beyond the arc. In four seasons, she scored 1,335 points and netted an incredible 217 3-pointers, a school mark seemingly untouchable. The Falcons won 86 games during her career, capturing four consecutive Mid-Atlantic Prep League and New Jersey Prep A titles.

On Feb. 21, 2001, in the championship game against Montclair-Kimberley Academy, Graber scored 22 points and cracked the 1,000-point plateau. Graber’s father was among those she thanked after surpassing the milestone. “He practices with me every day in the backyard, and all his time working with me definitely improved my game.” “Jenna was an incredible gamer,” said Sean Casey, her former coach. “She always showed up in the biggest moments.”

Consider the magnitude of Graber’s game when, as a sophomore, she “stole the show” with 27 points to beat highly-touted Germantown Academy (23-3), 65-47. She “launched one rainbow projectile from NBA range” to cap off a spectacular shooting clinic. Graber pitched in 13 points, including three 3s, in a stunning 64-58 victory against Willingboro High School, the Group III state champion. Named to the Nike Tournament of Champions All-Tournament Team, Graber was a 2002 McDonald’s All-American Nominee and earned first-team All-State honors for independent schools from the Newark Star-Ledger. Graber continued her 3-point marksmanship at LaSalle University. She made 151 triples out of 352 attempts (42.9%). In the 2005-06 season, her 3-point shooting percentage of (.451) was sixth among all Division I players.
