The Commissioner's Cup is given to the member school that exhibits the strongest overall athletic program for the academic year. Each school is measured by the performances of their respective teams that compete in conference sports. A 10-point system based on the 20 conference sports determines the annual winner. The Cup is named for Dr. Damore, the long-time SUNYAC Commissioner who retired in 2012.
