Hunter College Athletics

Playing on pioneering teams during the early era of Hunter College women’s basketball, Marion Weber was regarded as one of the top point guards of the time. She ran a powerful offense and contributed impressive defense for Hunter, which posted a combined record of 26-3-1 during her career. That total included the first undefeated season (10-0-1) in school history in 1940-41. The team recorded its impressive victory total against the top opponents in the New York metropolitan area. She also served as captain of the women’s field hockey team and was a key player on the women’s tennis team. A trailblazer in the field of gender equity, she later went on to serve as women’s athletic director at Columbia University.
