LC Sits Atop Commissioner’s Cup Rankings
Virginia Wesleyan, Lynchburg Split Men's, Women's Cup Totals
SALEM, Va. --- The 2009 fall Old Dominion
Athletic Conference championships have all come to a close and the
race for the Dan Wooldridge Overall Sports Champion Cup, sponsored
by Farm Bureau Insurance, is underway. Lynchburg
College is atop the current rankings for the overall cup and the
Women's Commissioner's Cup, while Virginia Wesleyan College is at
the head for the Men's Commissioner's Cup.
Farm Bureau Insurance is the proud sponsor for the Dan Wooldridge
Overall Champions Cup and the Men and Women's Commissioner's
Cups. Farm Bureau and the ODAC continue their partnership in
focusing on the strength of the conference's student-athletes and
maintaining the NCAA Division III philosophy of the complete
student-athlete experience. Aside from supporting the ODAC
Commissioners' Cups, Farm Bureau is the sponsor of the ODAC's
sport-by-sport scholar-athlete awards.
As determined by the ODAC Board of Directors, points for the
Commissioner's Cups are based on regular-season standings in team
sports and championship team finishes in individual sports.
Each institution has a total number of possible points it can
collect based on its individual sport sponsorship. The total
number of points earned is then divided by the total number of
possible points to determine the ranking for each institution.
Lynchburg, which has not won the overall sport trophy since
2001-02, currently has 55.5 points out of a possible 61 points for
an overall rating of 0.91. The Hornets were crowned conference
champions in men's and women's cross country, field hockey and
men's soccer this fall.
On the men's side, Virginia Wesleyan has tallied 20 points out of a
possible 21 points for an overall total of 0.95. For the
women, LC racked up 36.5 points out of a possible 40 for an overall
rating of 0.91.
