Albright alumnus John Scholl ’69 will be recognized during halftime of the Albright men’s basketball game against Alvernia on Wednesday, January 16.

Scholl will be acknowledged in honor of the 50th anniversary of his single-game scoring record of 54 points for Albright men’s basketball, a record that still stands to this day. He registered the 54 points against Lycoming on January 4, 1969. In addition to the points record, Scholl set single-game school records for field goals (21) and field goals attempted (32) as well.

Scholl was a two-sport athlete at Albright playing both men’s basketball and track & field. He was named to the Albright Athletics Hall of Fame in 1994.
