The Blugolds are led in scoring by Jared Bardon (So.-DeForest, WI), who is averaging 13.6 points per game. Bardon is the only Blugold that's in double-figures in scoring. Bardon also leads the team in rebounding with 32 boards and assists with 14. Zack Ryan (So.-Lake Elmo, MN/Tartan) and Dan Ottney (So.-Glenwood City, WI) are both second on the team in scoring, averaging eight points per game.
