During an attempt to import some emails from an excel spreadsheet 100's of
"empty" contacts were made... is there any way to delete these in mass vs.
one at a time?

Sure. Display your Contacts in a table view like Phone List and sort by the
Full Name field. That should colocate all the entries in one place. You
should thenbe able to click the first, shift-click the last (to highlight
them all) and press Delete.
