Zach Bauman was NAU’s workhorse, record-setter, and Big Sky problem
In the 2013 season, Zach Bauman entered as Northern Arizona’s all-time leading rusher and a three-time All-Big Sky selection, backed by a résumé of three straight 1,000-yard seasons and 5,132 career rushing yards. He stood out as a compact, durable, high-volume back who could carry an offense, catch the ball, and finish drives, with NAU records in career rushing yards, carries, all-purpose yards, and points scored. The main appeal: proven production, toughness, and a track record of thriving as the focal point of a run game.
