CLEVELAND, Ohio – With the conclusion of spring NCAA championships occurring last week, the final and official Learfield Directors' Cup standings were released on Tuesday (June 11) morning.
 
Overall, 15 sports are counted in the final DII standings, four of which must be women's volleyball and basketball and men's basketball and baseball. The next highest (11 max.) sports scored for each institution, regardless of gender, are used in the standings.
 
Colorado Mesa finished in a tie for 10^th place in the final standings with Pittsburg State with 665 total points. The Mavericks scored 199.5 points during the spring season as they picked up points in baseball, men's golf, softball and men's and women's track and field.
