BEHREND LIONS REMAIN AT TOP OF PRESIDENTS CUP STANDINGS AFTER WINTER SEASON

Penn State Behrend picked up another AMCC championship this winter, as the Lions remain in the lead for the Presidents Cup after the winter sport season. Behrend claimed the men's swimming and diving championship, while finishing in the runner-up position in both women's swimming and diving and men's basketball. The Lions also finished at the top of the conference in the fall in men's soccer, women's volleyball, and women's cross country. They have collected 84.75 points out of a possible 106 total, for a league-high percentage ranking of 0.800.

With two conference championships under their belt in the fall, Franciscan University had a strong enough winter season to remain second to the Lions with a 0.679 ranking. The Barons claimed fall titles in men's cross country and women's tennis. Rounding out the top three with a .601 ranking is La Roche University who jumped from the seven spot up to number three with both a men's and women's basketball title this winter.
