The University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo athletics made a big jump from seventh place in 2022–23 to fifth place in 2023–24 in the Bob Hogue Commissioner’s Cup.
In the spring, the Vulcans won their second straight men’s golf title and finished third in softball and women’s golf. In the fall, both soccer programs picked up third place points.
The Bob Hogue Commissioner’s Cup scoring system awards points to schools based on their finishes in conference-sponsored sports. Point totals vary from sport to sport and are based upon the number of schools competing. Regular-season standings are used for baseball, basketball, soccer, softball and volleyball, while the results of the conference championships in the sports of cross country, golf and tennis are factored in. When teams are tied in the standings, the points awarded to those positions are added together then distributed evenly among the schools.
In 2023–24, the name was changed from PacWest Commissioner’s Cup to the Bob Hogue Commissioner’s Cup in honor of the retiring commissioner who led the conference for 16 years.
