Goodell Cooper is, without question, the most dominant basketball player to ever wear a Heron uniform. The native of nearby Penn Yan holds the William Smith career records for points (2,042), rebounds (887), and field goals made (841).
A three-time Kodak/WBCA All-American, including first-team honors as a junior and senior, Goodell Cooper helped William Smith to a 100-9 overall record, four consecutive conference championships, and appearances in four straight NCAA Tournaments. The three-time conference player of the year was twice named the Most Valuable Player of the Chase Scholarship Tournament. Goodell Cooper was named the 1997 Marion Harrison Greene Award winner as William Smith’s outstanding senior athlete.
As a first-year, she was named the rookie of the year by the UCAA, and the ECAC.
In 2002, Goodell Cooper became the first woman to be inducted into the Chase Scholarship Tournament Hall of Fame.
