Harold Ahrens Reds 101 point Washington scoring record
Harold Ahrens, a famed Washington basketball star, scored the final points in 1931 to set the school record at 101. He notes the 95-point effort by today’s Cardinals could have surpassed the mark if Coach McConnell kept regulars in, though the ball then had to return to center after each basket and free throw, slowing scoring.
