Hall of Fame
A two-year member of the Highlanders, Dan Grubbs ('80) was a force in the paint. In 1978-79, Grubbs set the single-season rebounding (269) caroms and finished with 511 career rebounds, which was second all-time upon his graduation. His career 9.3 rebounds per game stood as the program standard until the completion of the 2009-10 season. Grubbs pulled down a single-game record 19 boards as both a junior and senior. On top of those marks, he recorded the best single-season (.688/1979-80) and career (.652) field goal percentage in RU history. Part of RU's first scholarship class, Grubbs, a two-year captain, was a key cog on the 1978-79 squad that went 23-4, which remains the benchmark for victories in a single season.
