Commissioner's Cup Standings 2010-2011

Looks like UP has taken its typical top spot at this point in the academic year:

We lead the second place team by 5.5 points and are top for both men's and women's programs. It will be updated again upon the conclusion of the men's soccer season.

Yeah, XC and WSOC kind of give us a head start.

We're still in first place as of 3/24. We lead Santa Clara by three points with third place GU too far back to challenge. We currently sit in 3rd in the conference in the standings for baseball, while the Broncos are dead last. It's looking pretty good for the Pilot athletic department to claim the Cup for this academic year.

Have you considered our results in golf as part of your calculations?

Golf finished after the 3/26 publish date, but UP finished tied for 6th, whereas SCU finished just one place ahead in 5th.

I'm not sure you are factoring in another issue. Crew is also part of the cup standings.

Since we don't have it yet, I think any school that does has advantage there.

Last year, we were 4.5 points ahead of the next school on March 31 after golf season, but the baseball performance and the lack of crew dropped us and gave the title to Pepperdine, which was in 3rd or fourth place, I believe.( and has no men's soccer).
LMU was in second after golf last year.
Next year we will have crew but no golf.

Mmm... you're a bit off on this one, Geez. San Diego won the Cup again last year (third year in a row):

And, actually, our baseball performance vaulted us from fifth place to third, since we finished second overall in the WCC in baseball last year. We #1 after the basketball season (just like last year), but our performance in M/W tennis and M/W golf sunk us all the way to fifth until baseball bumped us back up.

I believe, though I'm not 100% sure, that teams can pick between women's golf and crew and get points for whichever one they finish higher in, but not get points for both. I may be wrong on that, but I think that's the case.

Oh boy, things sure changed on 5/10:

Commissioner's Cup Standings
2010-11 Standings (as of 5/10/11)
Santa Clara 59.0
San Diego 57.5
Saint Mary's 54.5
Portland 52.5
San Francisco 51.0
Loyola Marymount 45.5
Gonzaga 44.0
Pepperdine 42.0

Doesn't look quite as good now . . .

Assuming I did my math right, now that the baseball season is over the standings will look like this:

San Diego - 62.5
Santa Clara - 60.0
San Francisco - 59.0
Portland - 57.5
St. Mary's - 57.5
Gonzaga - 51.0
Loyola Marymount - 50.5
Pepperdine - 43.0
