When publicly announced in December that her number would be retired, Hile said: "I am truly honored and humbled to have my number retired and to be a part of such a great tradition at Indiana State. I never set out to break records and win awards. I played simply for the love of the game and the school. I feel fortunate to have played in an era that laid the foundation for the future of women's basketball. I treasure my memories and time spent at ISU, and if not for my former teammates and coaches, this honor would not have been possible."
Â
Inducted into the Indiana State Athletics Hall of Fame in 2005, Hile staked her claim as one of the greatest women's basketball players in Indiana State history during her career from 1983-87. During her four-year career, Hile set the ISU scoring record at 1,944 points which still stands today. Her 916-career rebound mark ranks second in program history.
Â
Hile recorded four 30-point scoring performances over her career, which ranks second in program history while also being ranked third in single-game scoring with a 37-point output against Xavier in 1986.
Â
Hile made an immediate impact as she earned the 1983-84 Gateway Conference Rookie of the Year honor. She continued her excellent play throughout the rest of her career as she was a four-time Gateway All-Conference recipient, including three straight first team all-conference honors. Hile was also a standout in the classroom as she earned GTE Academic All-American honors in 1986-87.
