Boucicault left it all on the court during her collegiate career. In the 2005-06 season, she earned  CIAA Player of the Year and further solidified her dominance by being named the CIAA Tournament MVP. Her accolades extended to the All-South Atlantic Region, where she received recognition for both the regular season and tournament. 

As a two-time All-CIAA Selection and Two-Time CIAA All-Tournament Selection, Boucicault's skill set and leadership were widely acknowledged. Her exceptional performance also earned her a spot among the finalists for the Kodak/WBCA All-America Women’s Basketball Team in the 2005-06 season, along with a Daktronics Honorable Mention All-America Selection. Boucicault played a pivotal role in shaping the legacy of Shaw University's basketball program. Under the guidance of Coach Jacques Curtis, she helped initiate the Shaw basketball dynasty. Her contributions were instrumental in securing two consecutive CIAA crowns, marking the third and fourth conference titles under Coach Curtis.

Notably, Boucicault's impact extended beyond the conference level. She played a key role in leading the Lady Bears to two straight NCAA South Atlantic Regional titles and two consecutive appearances in the Elite Eight, showcasing the team's supremacy among the top eight teams in the nation. In the 2004-05 season, her efforts contributed to Shaw's No. 1 national ranking heading into the Elite Eight, reflecting her influence in elevating the team to national prominence.
