Sunday, shooting 24-for-48 on 3-pointers in a 173-123 win over
Crossroads. He poured in 53 during the first nine minutes of the
second half.
The 5-foot-10 guard from Black River Falls, Wis., set an NCAA record
for any level by scoring 138 points last Nov. 20 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 Clarence "Bevo" Francis, who had 113 against Hillsdale in
1954.
Against Crossroads College, in Rochester, Minn., Taylor was 35 of 70
overall from the field while playing only 29 minutes. He made 15 of
17 foul shots.
