On February 13, 2010, before the game vs. St. John's, Charles became the 12th UConn Women's basketball player to be recognized in the Huskies of Honor and was the 2nd player to be honored while still a player.
On March 1, 2010, during a game against Notre Dame, Charles broke two UConn records on the same night.
Her fifth rebound made her the all-time leading rebounder at UConn, surpassing Rebecca Lobo's fifteen-year-old record of 1268.

Additionally, Charles started the night in third place in career scoring, behind Kerry Bascom and Nykesha Sales.

The coach did put her back in the game in the fourth quarter, and she earned an assist on a pass to Jessica Moore, leading to the triple double.

One of the rebounds in the second quarter pushed her career total to 1,000.

(both scoring and rebounds in double digits).
