Carol Turney-Loos spent two years with UBC, winning the national title in 1974 before moving on to play with UVic for the 1977-78 and 1979-80 seasons. The dynamic offensive talent led the Vikes to the national finals twice, winning in 1980 on the back of her MVP performance. She was named the 1980 Nan Copp Award winner for her efforts that year. In the Canada West record book, she still ranks first all-time in points-per-game (21.10), third all-time in field goals made (649) and first in free throws made per game (4.462).

On the international stage, Turney-Loos represented Canada at the 1976 Olympic Games and would have competed in 1980 if not for Canada's boycott. She also played on the Canadian World Championship team that won bronze in 1979.
