Record Holders
4 marks since 1946| Year | Player | Y/A | Stood for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1949 | Joe Perry | 6.81 | still standing |
| 1948 | Johnny Strzykalski | 6.49 | 1 year |
| 1947 | Johnny Strzykalski | 6.34 | 1 year |
| 1946 | Vic Kulbitski | 6.24 | 1 year |
The earliest marks here are records only in the sense that nobody had done better yet. Season length, schedule and the rules themselves have all changed, so a figure from the 1870s is not comparable with a modern one and is not offered as though it were.
