All will say goodbye to their home court at 8 p.m. Wednesday when Dayton plays Virginia Commonwealth with the Atlantic 10 Conference championship on the line.
Everyone knows these seniors have won more games than any class in school history, but they have also scored 4,046 points (and counting). That doesn’t include 606 points Cooke scored in two seasons at James Madison.
Where does this senior class rank in points scored compared to other senior classes in UD history? It ranks fifth with 4,045 points. It is averaging 51.8 points per game, so it’s likely to move up one spot before the season ends.
Here’s a list of the combined points total of every senior class since 1952. There’s one junior included. Johnny Davis left school after his junior year to play in the NBA. Points totals come from the UD Media Guide.
