“I must be dreaming,” University of Minnesota coach John Mariucci said upon seeing Poole at the 1954 tournament. “That fellow’s too good for this league.” The 5-9, 145-pound center with dazzling offensive skills helped the Prowlers win the 1954 title and make a return trip in 1955, when he scored four goals.
