Well, almost last place. The standings don't show the 65 Division I schools with zero Directors' Cup points.

Incidentally, Loyola Marymount has been one of the schools to earn zero points two out of the last five years, making it all the more remarkable that they forced UCLA to win their baseball regional through the elimination bracket.

That schedule conflict has always been part of the deal as baseball wraps up after this annual meeting.
In the very early years there was actually a hope that the cup would not be clinched by the meeting and the organization would be able to highlight the upcoming dramatic finish.

While Baseball is still underway, the NACDA knows that Stanford has earned at least 50 points, putting our minimum score at 1,477.00. The math was probably easier this year due to six National Championships.

Geaux Cardinal!

Baseball wins their regional, so it has now earned at least 64 points. Up to 1491.

Men's OTF finishes fifth earning 75 Cup points. We drop 63.75 for Women's ITF for a net gain of 11.25 and a new unofficial total of 1,502.25.

Under the old rules, Stanford would currently have at least 1626 points with baseball counting 64 points. Stanford's best year was 1550.25 in 2010-11. The highest score that any other school reached was 1343.75 by Ohio St. in 2016-17.

RE: 2018-19 Standings - BigEasyCard - 06-08-2019

Women's OTF finishes in four-way tie for 10th earning 65.25 Cup points. We drop 64.00 for Men's Tennis for a net gain of 1.25 and a new unofficial total of 1,503.50. It's all up to Baseball now.

It looks like our final unofficial total is 1,503.50, about 60 points better than last year. This has been an incredible year for Stanford Athletics.

Trophy presentation Wednesday at NACDA convention.

Outstanding. Thank you again for your great timely updates

RE: 2018-19 Standings - BigEasyCard - 06-12-2019

The Cardinal win the Cup with an official total of 1,503.75:

Michigan finishes second with 1,182.25 and potentially another 22 points in Baseball (assuming their current score includes 78 points for fifth place).

So under the new scoring structure which many of us believe was designed to "level the playing field", Stanford continues to dominate. Imagine if Men's Basketball were to turn it around and earn points.

Outstanding job by all Stanford athletes, coaches, and staff!

RE: 2018-19 Standings - bnarver - 06-13-2019

Slight difference in what BigEasyCard and I have for the women's outdoor T&F score and what NACDA has. NACDA says Stanford gets 65.5 points for a 4-way tie for 10th. BigEasyCard and I say it should be 65.25. (67.5 + 66 + 64.5 + 63)/4 = 65.25

NACDA also has men's tennis counting for Stanford. It should not. Men's tennis is worth 64 points. Stanford has 15 other sports that are worth more, with women's T&F being the lowest score that should count. It just so happens that baseball, which is one of the 4 mandatory sports, will give Stanford 64 points once it is counted in the final standings, so Stanford's tally now should be 1439.75 with a final tally of 1503.75, assuming NACDA keeps their score of 65.5 for women's outdoor T&F.

Thanks for drilling into the difference. I noted it as well but haven't taken the time to investigate. In the past I have contacted NACDA and they have made corrections where warranted.

In any event, this was an outstanding year for Stanford athletics. I know the Michigan AD personally and look forward to discussing how he plans to close the gap going forward.

Final results are out and show Stanford winning with a total of 1,567.75 points:

It appears that the NACDA is still including Men's Tennis as noted above. I have emailed them about this and will post an update after I hear back.

In any event, Stanford wins a 25th consecutive Cup.

RE: 2018-19 Standings - Canalejas - 06-28-2019

Do we know how many points Stanford earned but didn't get to count due to the 15+4 sports limit?

RE: 2018-19 Standings - bnarver - 06-28-2019

Some notes on the final standings.

Stanford could have dropped their next 3 lowest scores and still have finished first.

By finishing 3rd, Florida continues its streak of never finishing lower than 7th. They are the only school other than Stanford to have always finished in the top 10. They also do it by competing in only 9 men's sports and 12 women's sports.

USC seems to have become a player. They are 1 of 4 schools to have finished in the top 10 for the last 6 years. Obviously, Stanford and Florida are 2 of the other schools; Texas is the 4th.

After never finishing higher than UCLA in the first 22 years, USC has been 2-2 in the last 4 years.

By winning the football title, Clemson will be tied for 5th in the Capital One Cup with N. Dakota St. They finished 73rd here, behind Navy, New Mexico, and Georgetown.

Here's the writeup on Stanford's 25th CONSECUTIVE Cup:

https://gostanford.com/news/2019/6/28/athletics-quarter-century-of-excellence.aspx

It refers to the incorrect total of 1,567.75 points but I expect a correction at some point.

In this cycle, Cardinal teams earned 151 more points than last cycle. And 438.75 points were dropped in the cut to nineteen scoring sports.

RE: 2018-19 Standings - Canalejas - 06-30-2019

Thanks for confirming that, BigEasyCard.

With that many dropped points from nine discarded scores, if Stanford was able to field a Stanford B team made up of the 9 discarded scores, Stanford B would have edged Harvard for 57th place in the final standings and would have been 10th in the Pac-13.

I made a table with every school that won, had a runner-up finish, a Top 5, and a Top 10 finish in the 26 years the Directors' Cup has been awarded.

It really would be a fun award to follow for plenty of large interested fan bases, if Stanford didn't just completely ruin the horse race aspect of the Cup.
