As an Eagle

Gitte Mejer put together a career at Concordia University that has earned her the title of greatest player in the history of the women's basketball program.

She was a two-time all-American and three-time all-Golden State Athletic Conference honoree, leading the Eagles to a record of 71-19 during those three seasons.

Mejer holds a plethora of records for single games, season and career. For a singl game, she is the standard-bearer for points (53), field goals made (24) and attempted (36), and free throw percentage (13-of-13) while also grabbing the second-most rebounds (19). The 53 points scored against Biola in January of 1994 came just three days after scoring 47 against Point Loma Nazarene.

Her single season marks include points per game (24.9), field goals (261) and field goal percentage (.630) while she also set career marks for points (2,716), field goals made (838) and attempted (1,415) and field goal percentage (.592). Mejer is also second all-time in free throws made and attempted (449-for-648) as well as rebounds (947).

Mejer was the foundation for the first-ever GSAC champion in Concordia history and helped the team to its first-ever NAIA National Tournament appearance.

A current resident of Aarhus, Denmark, Mejer is married and has a son.
