Hall of Fame
John Briney helped establish one of the most successful stretches in Lights men's basketball history during the mid-1990s. A three-time All-Conference selection and the program's seventh all-time leading scorer with 1,405 career points, Briney led Northern to back-to-back Frontier Conference championships and an NAIA Elite Eight appearance. Known for his leadership, toughness, and team-first mentality, Briney continued his impact on the game through coaching, helping guide Three Forks High School to a state championship. His accomplishments as both a player and mentor continue to reflect the values of MSU-Northern Athletics.
