Jack Taylor Biography

Birthday Oct 12
Birth Year 1990

Jack Taylor is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on October 12, 1990 in Lakeside, Lakeside, United States. In his first season at Grinnell, the team won their first two games with Taylor leading the team in scoring averaging 23.5 points in 13.5 minutes; however, he was only shooting 17.6 percent on three-pointers (6 of 34) and 26.8 percent overall (11 of 41). Although Grinnell players rarely played more than 20 minutes a game, Grinnell coach David Arseneault Jr. intended to give him extended playing time the following game to have him work out of his slump before the start of their conference schedule. On November 20, 2012, in a 179–104 win over National Christian College Athletic Association-member Faith Baptist Bible College, Taylor scored 138 points, setting the NCAA record for most points by an individual player in a game. He played 36 minutes and shot 52-of-108 from the field, 27-of-71 from 3-point range, and 7-of-10 from the free throw line. The 108 attempts were an average of three shots per minute. Taylor scored 58 points in the first half and 80 in the second; he was only 9 of 32 three-pointers in the first half before making 18 of 39 three-pointers in the second half, including seven consecutive in 1 minute 57 seconds. During one stretch, he scored a Division III-record 28 consecutive points. He also set NCAA single-game records for most three-point field goals, three-point field goals attempted, field goals, and field goals attempted. His 80 points in a half were also a record.

Taylor returned for the 2013–14 season healthy and with aspirations of leading the nation in scoring. Arseneault stated that Taylor “has earned the right to have the ball in his hands even more than last year.” On November 15, 2013, in Grinnell’s season-opening game, Taylor scored 71 points on 23-of-52 shooting in a 144–99 win against Finlandia University. The following game against Crossroads College, he surpassed the 100-point mark again with 109, including 53 in the first nine minutes of the second half of the 173–123 win. Overall, he played 29 minutes while shooting 35 of 70 from the field, 24-for-48 on three-pointers, and making 15 of 17 free throws. He exited the game with 5:32 remaining holding the third-highest single-game point total in NCAA history, behind his own NCAA record and Francis’s 113. He was the first college player to twice score over 100 against a four-year college. In his next game, which was also the one-year anniversary of his record 138-point game, Taylor was double- and sometimes triple-teamed by Wartburg College and scored just three points in 19 minutes in an 88–79 win. He finished the season as the nation’s leader in points per game (28.8) and three-pointers per game (5.38). He was named to the All-Midwest Conference Second Team, and D3hoops.com named him to their All-Midwest Region Third Team.

In his following game against William Penn, ESPN and The Boston Globe were among at least five different media outlets covering Taylor’s follow-up performance. He scored 21 points on 6-for-21 shooting in a 131–116 loss. He was later named the Midwest Conference Performer of the Week. Taylor’s 2012–13 season ended prematurely on January 9, 2013 when he broke the radius of his shooting arm during a 119–117 win over rival Cornell. This injury cost him the rest of the season. At the time of his injury, he was averaging 36.3 points.

Unable to secure a Division I athletic scholarship, he attended Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania after graduating from high school. Mercersburg, a boarding school that offered college-level courses, played in a league that produced Division I players. Taylor was averaging around 14 points and seven assists in nine games at Mercersburg before tearing the anterior cruciate ligament and lateral meniscus in his left knee in January 2010. He missed the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery. In April, he committed to playing at Division III University of Wisconsin–La Crosse, again turning down Grinnell.

Taylor attended Black River Falls High School in Black River Falls, Wisconsin and lettered in basketball for four years. In his senior year in 2008–09, he averaged 20.4 points and 4.7 assists per game and shot 42.3 percent on three- point field goals. He was Coulee Conference Player of the Year, first-team All-Conference, WBCA Division 2 first-team All-State, and AP honorable mention all-state. He finished his career as the second-leading scorer in school history with 1,295 points, averaging 20.7 points per game. He received interest from NCAA Division I Columbia, Division II Augustana, and Division III Grinnell.

Taylor became engaged to high school sweetheart Christina Teeples in August 2013, and the two married in the summer of 2014. Teeples also played basketball at Black River Falls High. They had a daughter, Abigail, in 2016.
