Scoreboard Watching

In a slight follow up to yesterday’s
piece regarding non-revenue
sports, I thought I would post the
current standings of the
Director’s Cup.
If you are new to the Director’s Cup
standings (it used to be called the Sears Cup),
according to the award’s site, it is an award
honoring universities maintaining a broad-based
athletic program, achieving success in many sports,
both men’s and women’s. Points are
awarded based on order of finish in various NCAA
sponsored championships or in the case of Division I
Football, media-based polls.
Ohio State’s
best finish in the competition is
3rd for the 2002-03 school year, followed by
a fourth place finish in 2003-04. Incidentally,
Stanford has won the award for Division I
athletics for 13 straight years, and winning 13
out of the 14 years, having finished second in
1993-94 – the inaugural year – to
North Carolina.
