AMERICA EAST RELEASE<\/a>\u00a0 I\u00a0 FINAL STANDINGS<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

BRETTON WOODS, N.H.<\/strong> \u2014 After winning eight of the America East\u2019s 19 championships during the 2013-14 season, the University at Albany has claimed the conference\u2019s Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner\u2019s Cup for the second consecutive year and third time in school history. The league announced the final cup standings Tuesday evening at its yearly awards dinner on Mount Washington in Bretton Woods, N.H.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Commissioner\u2019s Cup annually recognizes the strongest athletic program in the America East as determined by a scoring system that rewards a school for success both during the regular season and in championship competition.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn earning our second consecutive Commissioner\u2019s Cup, our student athletes, coaches and staff continued to sustain the culture of excellence that is defined by commitment, determination and integrity,\u201d said UAlbany\u2019s Vice President of Athletic Administration and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, Dr. Lee McElroy<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur achievement is in concert with the mission and values of the university,\u201d added McElroy. \u201cWe look forward to celebrating this significant milestone with our fans, donors, alums and university representatives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The only active member of the conference to ever win the cup, UAlbany matched last year\u2019s output and tied an America East record by winning eight league titles. The Great Danes also captured three regular-season crowns and a pair of runner-up finishes to help net a league-best 369 points.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stony Brook came in second-place for the second straight year, earning a school-record 338 points, followed by UMBC (298 points) in third, the University of New Hampshire (283) in fourth, Binghamton University (242) in fifth and the University of Hartford (202) in sixth. The University of Vermont (190), University of Maine (170) and UMass Lowell (129) rounded out the standings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, the America East (tournament) champion receives two points times the total number of teams participating in the championship. The second-place institution receives two less points; third place receives four less points and so on down to the last-place institution, which receives two points.<\/span><\/p>\n
