Hawks Stand Sixth in Commissioner’s Cup

The State University of New York Athletic Conference released the latest SUNYAC Commissioner’s Cup standings through the winter sports season. The Commissioner’s Cup champion is determined by the 20 different conference sports in the fall, winter and spring. An 11-point system is used in each sport. The first-place team gets 11 points, the second-place team gets 10 points and so on. A team’s regular-season finish will be added to their post-season finish and divided by two for their final total for that sport. The total number of points that a school accumulates is divided by the number of conference sports it has. This school total determines the overall winner at the end of the school year.

New Paltz, which stood in seventh place after the fall season has moved into sixth place with a 6.73 average. In the winter, New Paltz garnered 10 points for the women’s swim team and 8.5 for women’s basketball. New Paltz scored 8 in men’s swimming and 1.5 in men’s basketball.
