Tournament Trivia:
|
| After leaving the M-WHT
after the 2003 event, the Redbirds are
returning to the tourney field. Redbird head coach
Jim Youngman is very familiar with
Western Hall and the M-WHT. For three
seasons starting in 1998, Youngman was
Abingdon's head coach. One of those
tournaments (2000) was won by a
Youngman-coached team.
Since
Youngman's stop in Abingdon, he has
coached in Highland, Springfield
(Lanphier) and Oregon.
Aaron
Zobrist and Brad DuBois were named MVP of
the tournament in consecutive years
(1992-93).
R.J.
Romani shares the tournament record of 24
rebounds in a game. (vs. Monmouth, 1995).
That record is also held by Camp Point's
Jeff Nielsen.
