The Best Overall Record Trophy is an award presented by the Professional Inline Hockey Association (PIHA) to the team that finishes with the most points in the league during the regular season. If two teams tie for the most points, then the trophy goes to the team with the most wins. The Best Overall Record Trophy has been awarded nine times to six teams since first awarded in 2002. The most recent recipients of the trophy are the Suffolk Sting, who finished the 2009–10 season with 22 wins and 45 points, winning their first ever Best Overall Record Trophy.

History

The trophy was introduced at the end of the 2002 PIHA season by the league's Founders. Only four times has the Best Overall Record Trophy winner gone on to win the Founders Cup in their respective years. The only team to have won the Best Overall Record Trophy more than once is the Pennsylvania Typhoon (formerly the York Typhoon), with four.
