In the whole expansion game, one of the metrics that's been cited as not being in UC's favor is our overall sports portfolio. Varsity Village has been a huge step in correcting this, and the restoration of scholarships recently has been another. I take an occasional glance at the Directors' Cup standings, which essentially awards points based upon placement in NCAA tournament events. It isn't the perfect measure of a program, but does give some idea of success. Anyway, this has been the first time in a few years where UC has scored points in more than three sports in one academic year. To date, we've received points for football, men's basketball, women's swimming, and men's indoor track. We're currently 110th nationally (a considerable improvement over previous years) and 5th in the AAC.
