RIP Paul Unruh

Paul Unruh's teams from 1946 thru 1950 won 112 games. Not many BU players have been part of more wins, but a few have.
Can anyone name otherss/
 
Yes, excellent,
Melchiorre, Behnke, Grover, Alford & Mann - were all together 4 years (1947-51), for 119 wins
Stan Albeck & Zach Monroe (later pitched for the Yankees) were also on that 1950-51 team. The next year Bob Carney & Don Mathews (Eddie’s dad) came along.

Humerickhouse graduated in 1950 when Unruh did, so his win total is also 112.
 
I remember seeing Paul Unruh around Peoria and at BU games while I was growing up. Is Joe Stowell the last living member of the 1949-50 team?

Possibly... There are a few of the members of that 1949-50 team that I am not able to confirm if they have passed. They would be well into their 90's if alive.
Here are the members of the 1949-50 Bradley team that went 32-5, and lost in both the NCAA and NIT championship games to CCNY- https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/bradley/men/1950.html

If anyone know whether any are still alive (other than Joe) let us know.
