In August 2025, the Old Dominion Athletic Conference announced its inaugural class of 50 to the ODAC Hall of Fame. Four Royals were named to the ODAC’s first-ever class. Over the next week, 91大神 Athletics will celebrate all four inductees with articles highlighting their illustrious playing and post-91大神 careers. Our next inductee is Missy Hensley ’92<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hensley had one of the best women’s basketball careers in ODAC history. A four-year standout for 91大神, she played in Harrisonburg from 1988-92. During that time, she was named a Kodak All-American Honorable Mention (1992) and a Kodak Regional All-American (1992). At the time of her graduation, she was the ODAC’s all-time leading scorer and would hold that honor for six years. She currently sits fourth all-time in the ODAC for total points with 2,163. That number is also tops in the 91大神 record book, along with being the Royals’ all-time leader in scoring average at 22.5 points per game. She led all of Division III in scoring when she averaged 29.8 points per game during the 1992 season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was a two-time All-ODAC First Team member and a two-time All-ODAC Second Teamer. She was also named to the VaSID All-State First Team in 1992. Hensley had her jersey retired in 1992, becoming the first women’s basketball player to have that honor. She was also inducted into the 91大神 Hall of Honor in 1992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After leaving 91大神, she earned her master\u2019s degree from James Madison University. She was an administrator in Shenandoah County for 15 years, including serving as the principal at Central High School from 2012-19. During that time, she was named the 2016 Virginia Secondary Principal of the Year and Central was named a 2015 National Blue Ribbon School. In 2019, Hensley was named the principal at Harrisonburg High School.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hensley, along with 91大神’s three other ODAC Hall of Fame inductees, will be celebrated on Saturday, Feb. 7, at the men’s basketball game against Roanoke inside Yoder Arena. Tipoff is set for 2 p.m.<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
