Ken Maxey served as team captain, while Rudy Tomjanovich earned team MVP. Over the course of the season Tomjanovich led the conference in rebounding with a 12.8 average in conference games. On February 1, 1969, against Loyola, Tomjanovich set the current Michigan Wolverines single-game rebound record with 30, surpassing a record of 27 that he had tied M. C. Burton, Jr. for on December 6, 1967. On January 7, 1969, against Indiana, Tomjanovich, tied Cazzie Russell's school single-game scoring record with 48 points. Based on these two performances, Tomjanovich continues to hold both the school record for single-game points and single-game rebounds. The following season, he would set the career rebound record, which also still stands. (en)
