The Incarnate Word Cardinals men's basketball statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Incarnate Word Cardinals men's basketball program in various categories, including points , rebounds , assists , steals , and blocks . Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The Cardinals represent the University of the Incarnate Word (UIW) in the NCAA Division I Southland Conference .[ 1]
Incarnate Word began competing in intercollegiate basketball in 1980, and did not start play in Division I until the 2013–14 season, having previously been in Division II . While the NCAA has recorded individual points and rebounds in all three of its current divisions throughout the history of UIW men's basketball, it did not record assists in D-II until the 1988–89 season, and blocks and steals until the 1992–93 season.[ 2] Nonetheless, the UIW record books include players in these statistics before these seasons.[ 3] These lists are updated through the end of the 2020–21 season.
