No. 90 - Renfro/Haynes Tally 90 pts. In A Season

Two of the schools best players all-time put up a staggering amount of points in a season within eight years of each other.

Ray Renfro assembled what is still one of the best campaigns in program history in 1951 when he rushed for 959 yards on 127 carries with 15 touchdowns. Those 15 scores gave him 90 points for the year, which at the time was a school record.

Averaging 7.5 yards per carry, Renfro took North Texas to an 8-4 record in 1951 and claimed the Gulf Coast Conference Championship.

Abner Haynes matched Renfro in 1959 when he too totaled 90 individual points in a season with 730 yards on the ground and 14 TD's. Haynes notched six more points by kicking the PAT.

The 1959 North Texas team finished 9-2 and won the Missouri Valley Conference.

Haynes currently sits eighth all-time in scoring with 158 points while Renfro finished his career with 157, enough for ninth in the record books.

The 90 points scored in a season stood as a record from 1951 when Renfro completed the task until 1977 when Michael Jones scored 98.
