29 MINUTES!!!!!!

Taylor has the NCAA record for any level scoring 138 points last November 20th in a 179-104 win over Faith Baptist Bible College.

The only other player to score more than 109 in an NCAA game was Rio Grande's "Bevo" Francis, who had 113 against Hillsdale in 1954.

"Just like last year, I couldn't have done this without my teammates," Taylor told Ted Schultz of Grinnell's sports Information Department postgame. "I give so much credit to them. This truly was a team effort. I'm thankful for the program and the people I have playing with me."

Here's your evidence...


For the season opener this year against the juggernaut Finlandia, Taylor scored 71 points the other night.
