Bea Gorton excelled in women’s basketball at Wheaton and was a prime reason why the 1967-68 team was undefeated. In that remarkable season, she led the team in scoring, with 182 points, and she had a personal best of 33 points against Concordia, setting a single-game record in that category which remained for 15 years. She also was the team’s leading free throw shooter, connecting on 68 percent of her attempts. Gorton also coached the Wheaton women’s basketball team for one year, in 1969-70, posting an 11-1 record.
