List of NCAA Division I men's basketball players with 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of NCAA Division I men's basketball players who amassed both 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds in their careers. In National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I basketball, recording both 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds is an accomplishment officially recognized in the NCAA basketball record book.[1]
In two incredibly rare instances there were players who amassed 2,000 points and 2,000 rebounds:
- Tom Gola, whose career at La Salle was between 1951 and 1955, grabbed an NCAA-record 2,201 rebounds in addition to his 2,462 points.[2]
- Joe Holup, whose career at George Washington was between 1952 and 1956, grabbed 2,030 rebounds and scored 2,226 points.[3]
The NCAA was not organized into its current divisional format until August 1973.[4] From 1906 to 1955, there were no classifications to the NCAA nor its predecessor, the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States (IAAUS).[4] Then, from 1956 to spring 1973, colleges were classified as either "NCAA University Division (Major College)" or "NCAA College Division (Small College)".[4][5]
Through the 2023–24 season, 19 players on this list have been enshrined into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
