Progression

Jill Justin eclipsed the original batting average record held by Yvette Cannon. After just three seasons, Justin was hitting a combined .475 (192/404).[1][66][67] She ended her career playing in a doubleheader sweep of the DePaul Blue Demons (the Huskies outscored the Blue Demons 9-1) on May 5, 1989.[1]

Since the conclusion of Justin's competitive days, four other collegiate batters have surpassed her single career record. However, none of them played all four eligible seasons but at least two of a minimum 250 at-bats (the NCAA Division I career parameter):
