A look back at Loyola's Sister Jean and her rise to fame as she turns 103 Sunday.

Meet Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt, better known as Sister Jean.

Born into a family of sports fans, Sister Jean played high school basketball from 1933-37 on a court divided into three sections with rules that allowed only forwards to shoot. She became a nun after high school, joining, an all-women’s school near Loyola, in 1961 and attended athletic events at both schools, driving some Mundelein teams to competitions. Mundelein merged with Loyola in 1991, and Sister Jean retired from the education department not long after.
