Your trivia answer is B Tyson Etienne Although there's a little bit of misdirection to this question, Tyson scored 1053 points from 2019 to 2022.
[00:03:35] Xavier Bell is the most recent addition to the 1000 point club. He scored 1023 points from 2022 to 25. Joe Raglan finished with 688 points in his two seasons at Wichita State. No one wore number one until Duke Shamba in 2000.
[00:03:54] Why is that the case? Most likely because of referee mechanics. Referees limited the numbers that college players could wear up until about the past 20 years or so. For example, they may have use number one or number two to signal the amount of free throws coming. Other notable Shockers to wear number one include Aaron Hogg, Gal McKill and Zach Brown.
