Chapman's school record holder in the women's 5-kilometers, Crampton was also a two-sport star for the Panthers, appearing in 100 basketball games in her four-year career, including 26 starts as a senior in 2004-05.

Crampton first set the Chapman record in the 5K as a sophomore with a mark of 19:06 at the Stanford Invitational in 2002. She then re-broke her own school record in the 5K with a time of 18:53 at the Cal State Fullerton Invitational in 2004. That same season, Crampton placed 35th at the NCAA West Regionals - the highest finish for a Chapman female - and was named to the All-Division III Independents team after earning top-five finishes at four separate meets.

Crampton was also a valuable member of the Panthers' basketball team, helping Chapman to four consecutive NCAA Division III playoff appearances, including a berth in the 'Sweet 16' during her freshman year in 2002. The shooting guard scored 696 points and grabbed 327 rebounds over her four-year career and added 46 three-pointers. Chapman had back-to-back 21-win seasons during her junior and senior years.
