Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David McCarty (born 1987)
a stat line mentioned in an article is technically still trivial coverage. Indeed, most of the articles are not about him, per se, but about the games themselves, with a one or two sentence reference to his achievement (and indeed those of the other players) as details of the team's play. Also, most of the articles are local coverage in the Albany/Schenectady/Troy area (or the newspaper in the area which Albany is playing that weekend); while legitimate sources, looking at #College_athletes, one would expect truly notable players to have references outside of their area (per bullet point 3) and, as the heading indicates, "non-trivial media coverage beyond merely a repeating of their statistics." Similarly, injury updates etc., provide content for the article once notability is established, but don't establish notability themselves
