Team

This squad still holds the state of Illinois record for winning 27 straight games, with its only loss coming in the NAIA National Championship Tournament in Kansas City. During the year, the high-powered team broke the century mark three times and still ranks among the all-time leaders in the WIU record book for scoring (81.3 ppg).
