Jessica Wilhite was on the women's basketball team from 1999-2003 and finished her career as UWM's all-time Division I leading scorer. She is still sixth on the school's all-time scoring list and third among Division I players, tallying 1,471 points in her career.
She still holds school records for threes in a game (10), season (93) and career (277). Wilhite averaged in double figures in each of her four seasons as a Panther while she played in 114 games.
In 2001, Wilhite led the team in scoring as Milwaukee captured its first-ever NCAA Tournament berth. That season, she led the Panthers in scoring while setting the school season record for three-pointers. Her play in the league tournament was particularly noteworthy, as she scored 36 points in the title-game victory over Green Bay on her way to earning MCC Tournament MVP honors.
Wilhite also was also an All-MCC performer as both a junior and senior, and she was named to the Milwaukee Women's Basketball All-Decade Team last year.
