Record Holders
3 marks since 1967-1968| Year | Player | FTM | Stood for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1970-1971 | Mack Calvin | 696 | still standing |
| 1969-1970 | Donnie Freeman | 626 | 1 year |
| 1967-1968 | Connie Hawkins | 603 | 2 years |
The earliest marks here are records only in the sense that nobody had done better yet. Season length, schedule and the rules themselves have all changed, so a figure from the 1870s is not comparable with a modern one and is not offered as though it were.
