Josh's shooting

Josh has been leading the league in scoring for a while now. More interestingly, his shooting percentage is up aroung 64%. This is very impressive, and leads the league by a good distance for players taking a meaningful number of shots.

Does anybody know what the BGSU and MAC records are for FG% for the season?

I believe Floyd Miller led the nation in Field Goal % in93 or 94... that guy was MONEY from 12 feet in.

The all-time MAC field goal leader for one season is Mike Williams from Miami in 1991-92. He shot a percentage of .693.

The career leader is also Williams at .652.


And Reimold, who is shooting a ridiculous 3-pt %, has to beat Sean Wightman's (WMU) .632 from downtown in 1991-92 for the 3-pt. % record.

The most recent info I have is kind of old (a 1999-2000 program), but according to that, the BG record for FG% in a season is SKR at .683, for a career is Floyd Miller at .621.

3pt FG % is Steve Martenet at .563 for a season and .567 for a career.

I think this is impossible. They have to be backwards. Maybe 0.567 for a season and 0.563 for a career.

I type 'em as I see 'em... :lol: But I think you're probably right.

I found the probably reason for the "backwards math". Martenet was 36-64 (56.3%) in his senior year, 1987-88, but went 2-3 in the two previous years he played. I don't remember when the 3 point rule was put into college hoops exactly, but it was around that time. Either that had something to do with it, or Martenet rarely played (or rarely shot), and the three 3pt. attempts aren't enough to officially qualify for the leaderboard.

That makes sense. Thanks for doing the research. :D
