Hope College leads the 2003-04 Commissioner's Cup standings after the fall sports season.
The MIAA presents separate awards for the best cumulative finish in men's and women's sports as well as an award for the best cumulative finish in all league sports (men and women). The separate awards are known as the Men's All-Sports Award and the Women's All-Sports Award while the cumulative award is known as the Commissioners' Cup.
The current standings are based on the standings of the eight fall sports. During the fall, Hope teams won league championships or co-championships in men's golf, football, men's and women's soccer. The women's golf team finished second while the men's and women's cross country teams and volleyball squad ended third.
The final standings after the spring season will be determined on the basis of each college's standings in eight of nine sports for men and eight of nine sports for women. These point-totals are added together to determine the winner of the Commissioners' Cup.
