Phil Forte Named 2016-17 NCAA Free Throw Champ

Phil Forte made 84 of his 88 free throw attempts during the 2016-17 NCAA season. On Monday he was named the free throw champ by the NCAA. I’m not sure why an organization would need to announce what was already statistically apparent (#math), but here we are.

Here is a look at the top 20 from last year.

Here are Forte’s splits for last year.

  • November: 30-31
  • December: 14-14
  • January: 19-22
  • February: 16-16
  • March: 5-5

He ended his career by not missing a free throw over his final 14 games.
