KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association released its final standings for the 2025-2026 Commissioner's Cup, presented by Impact Signs. Pitt State teams collected eight MIAA championships and averaged 11.67 points per sport to claim its fifth consecutive all-sports trophy. Washburn was the runner-up in the Commissioner's Cup standings for the second straight year. 

The MIAA Commissioner's Cup, presented by Impact Signs, is the Association's all-sports trophy awarded to the league's top-performing institution at the end of each academic year. Points are awarded based on a team's finish in the MIAA's regular season competition. The number of points awarded per sport is based on the number of schools sponsoring that sport and each institution's grand point total is then divided by the athletic programs it sponsors, giving an overall average finish for the school. 
 
"Congratulations to Pittsburg State University's student-athletes, coaches, and administrators on winning yet another Commissioner's Cup," said MIAA Commissioner Mike Racy. "And a special thanks to our Commissioner's Cup sponsor Impact Signs for their continued support of MIAA athletics!"

"The MIAA has a rich history of nationally ranked programs with the expectation of athletic excellence every year. The Commissioner's Cup is the Association's highest recognition of the athletics excellence exhibited by programs in MIAA-sponsored championship sports."
