Arguably Maine’s greatest all-time basketball player, Cindy Blodgett of Lawrence High School in Fairfield became the gold standard for excellence to those in the state. She led the Bulldogs to a four-year career record of 84-4 with four Maine Principals’ Association (MPA) Class A Girls State Basketball titles.

Blodgett finished her high school career as the state’s all-time leading scorer (2,596 points), while also capturing Maine’s Gatorade Player of the Year honors from 1992 to 1994. From 1994 to 1998, Blodgett had a similarly illustrious career at the University of Maine before getting selected by the Cleveland Rockers with the sixth overall pick in the 1998 WNBA Draft. #TitleIXat50
