In 1998, Feaster led the nation in scoring, averaging 28.5 points per game. She was also 14th in rebounding with 10.8 per game and 16th in steals with 3.3. Her performance earned her a spot on the Kodak Division I Women's All-America Basketball Team.

Despite Harvard’s 22-4 record and Ivy League championship that season, they were given a No. 16 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Their first-round matchup paired them against the No. 1-seeded Stanford Cardinal on Stanford’s home floor, Maples Pavilion.

Feaster put up 35 points and 13 rebounds, leading Harvard to a shocking 71-67 victory. The win made the Crimson the first and only No. 16 seed in women’s NCAA Division I history to defeat a No. 1 seed. It was an unmatched feat until UMBC pulled off a similar upset over Virginia in the 2018 men’s tournament.
