College lacrosse records listed here are primarily records compiled by the NCAA's Director of Statistics office.
This information is included in this Wikipedia article because there is no other available repository which provides as comprehensive a listing, nor includes as comprehensive a sourcing and a linking for researching the history of lacrosse, the history of college lacrosse players. Where appropriate, prose, details and links are provided for certain lacrosse players and records sections so this Wikipedia page is not viewed merely as a statistical repository.
Included in this consolidation are the Men's Division I individual single-season and career leaders. Official NCAA men's lacrosse records did not begin until the 1971 season and are based on information submitted to the NCAA statistics service by institutions participating in the weekly statistics rankings, which started in 1996. Career records include players who played at least three seasons (in a four-season career) or two (in a three-season career) in Division I during the era of official NCAA statistics. In statistical rankings, the rounding of percentages and/or averages may indicate ties where none exist. In these cases, the numerical order of the rankings is accurate.
Also included here are pre-NCAA records, college lacrosse records from prior to 1971. Compiling and validating lacrosse records prior to the "NCAA-era" is hit-or-miss. In many cases, USILA records can be gathered from a university's own record books. To date, the NCAA does not officially recognize lacrosse records prior to 1971 as well as several records during the NCAA era, and the NCAA nor the USILA maintain a searchable database of lacrosse records.
USILA era lacrosse records, nonetheless, have been included below. In other cases, career or single-season records are indicated below, where the NCAA has not validated or officially recognized that record, for players during the "NCAA-era", post-1971.
Career leaders
[edit]Points
[edit]Career points listed below are all post-1971, the year the NCAA organized a Division I tournament. 300 career point was until recently considered a major achievement. After 2000 or so, the amount of games played in a season dramatically increased. Also, COVID-19 [1] provided players with an extra year of eligibility. Such that many of the top points producers, those with 300 or more show as having played after 2000.
Michael Sowers, Chris Gray, Asher Nolting, Logan Wisnauskas, Jared Bernhardt, Jackson Morrill all received an extra year of eligibility due to Covid, with Sowers transferring from Princeton to Duke and Gray using his extra year to enter the transfer portal as well.
Chris Gray set the single season career points record in 2022, breaking Lyle Thompson's record playing for his second school North Carolina after having taken his extra Covid year to transfer from Boston University.[2]
Because of the Duke lacrosse case Matt Danowski and Zach Greer were granted an extra year of eligibility. As such, Zach Greer's career points mark of 353 points is not officially recognized by the NCAA since Greer took his fifth season of eligibility at Bryant which was still reclassifying as a Division I institution that year.

- [a] Granted a fifth season of eligibility
- [b] Lehigh records have Cameron with 308 career points, while NCAA record book shows Cameron with 307 career points.
- [c] Zach Greer's career points mark of 353 points is not officially recognized by the NCAA. Greer was granted a fifth season of eligibility and Bryant was considered a reclassifying institution that year. The NCAA lists Greer's career points as 285, though he scored 42 goals with 26 assists for 68 points in 2009, for a total of 353 career points.
Points per game
[edit]Career points listed above are not necessarily the best measure of a lacrosse players career achievement, since as mentioned the amount of games played in a season dramatically increased after 2000 and COVID-19 provided players with an extra year of eligibility. Points-per-game provides another measure of the top career lacrosse players.
Several players listed here were either pre-NCAA or in the early days of NCAA play, where the players played on dominant teams and where they were able to rack up consistenly high point totals. Selected dominant players listed here include Lacrosse Hall of Famers Ray Altman who played for the Maryland Terrapins, Canadian all-timer Stan Cockerton[3], as well as Hopkins' Joe Cowen.
Ray Altman[4], Joe Vasta, Joe Cowen, Frank Urso and Jimmy Lewis records listed below are not recognized by the NCAA.

Goals
[edit]Payton Cormier set the new record for career goals, having played 5 years including the Covid extra year. Among the most prolific goal scorers is Canadian Stan Cockerton who scored 193 goals in just 44 games. Cockerton played the fewest amount of games of any of the players listed below. He led the now defunct NC State Wolfpack men's lacrosse team to its only NCAA tournament.[5]
Zack Greer's record of 248 career goals is not recognized by the NCAA and is qualified because Greer played his extra eligibility year at Bryant while that school was still completing its Division I reclassification (from Division II). Five of the all-time career goal scorers played at Duke.
