LA JOLLA, Calif. – Leora Juster of the University of California San Diego women's basketball program has been selected for induction into the California Collegiate Athletic Association Hall of Fame. The CCAA announced its six inductees of the Class of 2020 this afternoon.
 
An outstanding scholar-athlete for the Tritons, Juster is the program's all-time leading scorer with 2,049 career points. The two-time All-American scored at least 30 points on 12 occasions during her collegiate career, which spanned from 2003 until 2007. Juster graduated from UC San Diego with a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Secondary Education.

"I want to congratulate the 2020 CCAA Hall of Fame class," said CCAA commissioner Mitch Cox. "Being selected for induction is a true honor, and it couldn't go to a more impressive group of former student-athletes and one highly respected coach. Those selected for induction have certainly made their mark on their chosen field of play, but also in their community and careers of choice, including professional athletics. It is an amazing group that we honor this year, and I look forward to celebrating this accomplishment with them."
 
Currently a software engineer, Juster was previously inducted into the UC San Diego Athletics Hall of Fame in 2019 alongside Mike Nalu of men's water polo and Sheri Takeuchi of women's swimming and diving.
