College Basketball Player Statistics Added for 1994-95 Season
Posted by Mike Lynch on January 29, 2016
As we continue to work our way back on digitizing player statistics for old college basketball seasons, we are happy to announce the player stats for the 1994-95 season are now live on the site. You can see player leaders for the season here. Notably, Kurt Thomas became the third player to lead NCAA D-I in scoring and rebounding in the same season (28.9 PPG and 14.6 RPG). Here's the team stats page for UCLA, as the Bruins won their record 11th (and most recent) national championship.
The new season of statistics has also been synced into the Player Season Finder tool, so you can now make customized searches for player stats all the way back to 1994-95 (though we cannot yet calculate Win Shares for 1994-95). Here's a few examples:
- Since 1994-95, Kurt Thomas's 14.6 RPG in have been surpassed by only Tim Duncan's 14.7 RPG in 1996-97.
- Nelson Haggerty's 10.1 APG in 1994-95 are the most any player has averaged in a season over this span.
- Allen Iverson is the only player in our data to have over 200 combined steals in his freshman and sophomore seasons (The Answer was a freshman in 1994-95).
- Bonzi Wells's game was as unique as his name.
In the coming months and years, we hope to continue to add past seasons of player statistics, as well as team statistics.
Alright Mike! Sounds good. I'm glad you guys are adding these college bball updates to past seasons. Keep going with it as much as you can!
Oh, and can you tell me at what point you guys will do some updates for the college football site?
May the Lord Jesus bless you guys, and have a great weekend.
