The Le Moyne Dolphins men's basketball statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Le Moyne Dolphins men's basketball program in various categories, including points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The Dolphins represent Le Moyne College in the NCAA Division I NEC (historically known as the Northeast Conference). [1] [2] [3] [4]
Le Moyne began competing in intercollegiate basketball in the 1948–49 season. It initially competed as a de facto "small college" program before the NCAA's first official divisional split in 1956. At that time, Le Moyne became part of the NCAA College Division. When the NCAA created its current three-division alignment in 1973, Le Moyne aligned with Division II, not moving to Division I until 2023. This history is significant because the official recording of statistics began at different times in different NCAA divisions.
The NCAA has recorded scoring statistics throughout the "modern era" of basketball, which it defines as starting with the 1937–38 season, the first after the center jump after each made field goal was abolished. Individual rebounding was first recorded in 1950–51, as were individual assists. While rebounding has been recorded in every subsequent season, the NCAA stopped recording individual assists after the 1951–52 season. Recording of assists resumed in D-I in 1983–84, but that statistic was not recorded in D-II until 1988–89. Similarly, while the NCAA started recording blocks and steals in D-I in 1988–89, it did not record those statistics in D-II until 1992–93. [5] [6] Le Moyne's record books include players in all named statistics, regardless of whether the NCAA officially recorded them at that time.
