COMMISSIONER'S CUP
In 1996, the CUNY Athletic Conference Community College Board of Directors approved the formation of the Commissioner's Cup, the ultimate trophy to be awarded on an annual basis, starting with the 1997-98 academic year. It is presented at the CUNYAC Scholar-Athlete Ceremony in May to the top overall athletic program, based upon championship standings for all CUNYAC sports (determined by a point system).
Four-Year Colleges
Points are awarded for first (10), second (5) and third (3) place finishes in all regular season finishes. In Conference tournaments, first (10) and second (5) place is awarded in all head-to-head championship finals, while third place points (3) are awarded in every other sport, where there are more than five participating schools. Also, due to the difference in sizes of athletic programs in CUNYAC, a school can only use their top ten sports in any academic year.
If the situation occurs where there are two institutions tied for the CUNYAC Commissioner's Cup, the institution that has won the most CUNY tournament championship titles will be named the winner. If there is a tied spot for points, the points are split amongst the tied teams rather than using the tie-breaker system to award points.
