    UMBC Shatters Records, Claims Second in Commissioner's Cup

    UMBC Athletics just shattered records, landing second in the Commissioner’s Cup with a school-best 318 points — their highest finish since joining the America East in 2003. Powered by championships in volleyball, indoor track, swimming, and basketball, plus seven other top-three teams, UMBC finally cracked the top two after years of third-place finishes. Vermont narrowly edged them out with 320 points, while Bryant took third at 308 — the closest finish in league history, with just 12 points separating the top three. This marks the third straight year three schools surpassed 300 points, signaling a historic leap in conference competitiveness. UMBC’s rise isn’t just impressive — it’s setting a new standard for what’s possible in the America East. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
