Best I could do was some school records. Izzy Schmiesing scored 56 for St. Cloud State in 1956. Brett Beeson scored 54 for Moorhead State in 1996. Those are...
Berwald was part of the great big man class of 79 that included Randy Breuer, Ben Coleman, Mark Smed, Ron Falenschek, Doug Jones, and Mike Heller. Anybody have...
I doubt it. Not that I¹m aware of. No Gopher ever has, of course, so I wonder who has the highest previous. Schmiesing for any class, perhaps. For D1, Eric...
