Michael Todd Tripucka[1] (born September 16, 1954) is an American former basketball player best known for his college career at Lafayette College during the 1970s. A native of Bloomfield, New Jersey, Tripucka played three varsity seasons at Lafayette and led the Leopards to a 58–22 overall record and one appearance in the National Invitation Tournament (NIT).[2]
He was twice selected as a first-team all-East Coast Conference (ECC) player, and at the end of his senior year of 1975–76 he was named the ECC Player of the Year.[2][3] That season, Tripucka averaged a school-record 26.1 points per game, which was seventh best in all of NCAA Division I men's basketball.[2] In one game against Saint Joseph's he scored 42 points, still the fourth-best single game effort in school history.[2] Other still-standing single season school records include points in one season (679) and field goals attempted (520).[4] Tripucka finished his career with 1,445 points, which through the 2015–16 season is the ninth-most at Lafayette.[4] He went undrafted in the 1976 NBA draft, but was later inducted into Lafayette's Hall of Fame in 1989.[2]
