The basic rules that you can find never really touch on stat keeping.

Thanks in advance!
My guess is that it does not count as a block, as there would be no FGA credited (can't block a shot that never occurred).

For HS, you can buy a stats manual from the NF. Alternatively, go to http://www.ncaa.com and download the NCAA stats manual.
