She also played with the Sports Ambassadors against Mexican All-Star teams in 13 cities in Mexico in the summer of 1970.

She has been inducted into the National Association Sports and Physical Education Hall of Fame, the National AAU Women's Basketball Hall of Fame, and the Wayland Baptist University Hall of Honor. In 1998 she was selected as one of ten ServiceMaster/NAIA Distinguished Graduates in the United States. She has won four Freedom Foundation Awards for essays, and has had numerous articles published in newspapers and magazines, including Newsweek, the New York Times, Prevention, and the Christian Athlete.
