Former Glenbrook North Girls Star Reaches Milestone at Knox College

Former Glenbrook North High School girls basketball player Jodi Marver scored her 1,000th point as a member of the Knox College women’s basketball team during the Prairie Fire’s 105-99 loss to Monmouth College on Wednesday. Marver is only the second Knox women’s basketball player to ever reach to 1,000-point milestone, trailing only Brooke McKinney (1,285 career points) on the school’s all-time scoring list.

A four-year regular in the team’s line-up, Marver became the latest winner of the Prairie Fire Performer of the Week Award following her milestone.

During the week, Marver averaged 19 points, drained seven 3-point baskets and had nine steals in two games. She is averaging team-highs of 18.4 points and 3.6 assists, both of which rank fourth in the Midwest Conference. She’s also shooting 87.3 percent from the free throw line, the second-highest percentage in the league.
