| Carleton vs. St. Olaf | Men's Basketball | Founded: 1913-14 |
The 2015-16 season marks 102nd year that the Carleton and St. Olaf basketball programs have battled for the “Goat Trophy.” As the story goes, Endre Anderson, a St. Olaf student (and later Oles coach from 1920-27) fashioned a makeshift goat out of a chair and hung it from the rafters of the St. Olaf gymnasium back in 1914, trying to “get the goat” of the Carleton players. Carleton won that contest and claimed the Goat as a symbol of the victory. The two schools have traded the “Goat” ever since.
