Grace Beyer
Grace Beyer is an American former women's college basketball player. While playing for the UHSP Eutectics she established the all-time women's NAIA scoring record as well as the women's four-year college scoring record. She was a three-time NAIA & WBCA All-American, NAIA Academic All-American of the Year, 3-time first team Academic All-America, 3-time Women's Basketball NAIA Academic All-America of the year, five-time All-American Midwest Conference (4-time first team), 3-time AMC Player of the Year, and AMC Freshman of the Year. She led the NAIA in scoring 4 times. She played high school basketball for Mukwonago High School in Mukwonago, Wisconsin, leading the school to the final four of the state tournament all 4 years including 3 consecutive runnerup finishes. Beyer holds the UHSP career, season, and single-game records for points, field goals, free throws and assists. She has recorded the only triple-doubles in school history.
Beyer is one of three children born to Bob and Julie Beyer. Raised in Eagle, Wisconsin, she began her basketball journey in third grade. In her youth, she practiced her skills at her local YMCA and developed toughness playing against her older brothers Brian and Daniel at home in the driveway. Her father often took her to the YMCA to practice before school.
Beyer's maternal grandfather, Bernard Wenninger, lived with her family for nearly 15 years. His self-medication management began to overwhelm him, leading to her to assist as a caregiver, which required that she learn about the interactions of medicines. She had this responsibility in middle school all the way through high school. This instilled an academic interest in a scientific educational path.
As a freshman, she helped Mukwonago reach the 2016 Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA) Division 1 championship game, where they lost 52–46 to Verona. During the game, Mukwonago held leads of 29–21 and 37–32. Early in the game, Mukwonago coach Rick Kolinske instructed Beyer to continue dribbling for several minutes in the four corners offense to lure Verona out of its zone defense, but Verona did not relent.
She was a unanimous 2017 Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association Division I All-State selection and a fourth team Associated Press All-State selection. Mukwonago was again runner-up at the state tournament.
Mukwonago reached the 2018 WIAA Division 1 championship game against Appleton North High School after Beyer scored 16 in the semifinal victory over Oak Creek High School. Beyer was a 2018 honorable mention Associated Press All-state honoree and a Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association Division I All-State honorable mention selection. The NCAA Division I coaches that had recruited her since the seventh grade lost interest as she insisted on balancing a scientific curriculum with her athletics. She got the impression that most felt that science classes with lab hours would make it difficult to fully commit to basketball.
After three straight runner-up finishes, Mukwonago earned the number one seed in 2019 with Beyer entering the state tournament with averages of 13.6 points and 5.7 rebounds per game. The 16 points scored by Beyer in the semifinal against Middleton High School was not enough to earn a fourth consecutive championship game appearance. She repeated as an honorable mention Associated Press All-state honoree. She was also her high school class salutatorian.
In the 5 years ending in 2019 when Beyer enrolled at UHSP, the Eutectics had won 19 out of 135 games. Beyer earned American Midwest Conference (AMC) Player of the Week honors for her first week as a college basketball player in week one of the 2019–20 season on November 4. In the final week of the season, she posted the school's first triple-double with 27 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. It was one of only two triple-doubles by AMC athletes in 2019–20. Beyer went on to earn recognition as 2020 AMC Freshman of the Year, AMC All-Freshman Team and Third-Team All-AMC. Beyer led the team with points per game (17.5), rebounds per game (4.6) and assists with 94. The team set a school record with 10 wins.
