1989 Season

The team started off under the name Purple Haze. When it existed and when it stopped existing isn’t truly known. All we do know was that it was before 1989. In 1989, three grad students, Andy Norman, Jonathan Blake, and Dan Jansen, sparked the interest in younger students around Northwestern and got them playing regularly in intramurals and pick up. This beginning culminated in Northwestern entering a very ineligible team into sectionals. They lost, but played hard.
