The most decorated women's basketball player in NCAA Division III history when she graduated, Allison Coleman became the first four-time Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Division III All-American.

The 2004 State Farm/WBCA National Player of the Year led Eastern Connecticut State University to a 101-17 record (.856 winning percentage) and four postseason appearances. Coleman was the catalyst for the Warrior squad that reached the 2003 NCAA Division III National Championship Game. The only four-time Little East Player of the Year in the conference history guided Eastern Connecticut to a share of two regular-season conference championships.

Coleman is the only student-athlete in program history to record 1,000 career points (1,991) and rebounds (1,134). She is also the program leader in assists (579), and steals (369). Coleman was recently selected to the Little East Women's Basketball 25th Anniversary Team in 2011.
