Abstract: The purpose of the study was to investigate the types and frequency of basketball rule infringements that occurred at the college level during the 1971-72 competitive season and the First DGWS National Intercollegiate Basketball Championship. A checklist was prepared to record and identify rule infringements as they occurred during the game. One hundred ten games from eighteen colleges and universities were charted throughout their 1971-72 season. Statisticians from these colleges recorded all rule infringements called by nationally rated officials during the games. Ten games at the First DGWS National Intercollegiate Basketball Championship were also charted making a total of 103 teams participating in the study. The data were analyzed as to frequency of basketball rule infringements occurring during regular season and national tournament play in relation to quarters and point spread. During regular season play, there was an average of 9.31 violations and 8.01 fouls occurring per quarter, yielding a mean of 69.29 infringements called during an entire game. During the First DGWS National Intercollegiate Basketball Championship means of 5.38 violations and 7.90 fouls occurred per quarter averaging 53.10 infringements occurring during an entire game.
