We have some 2nd place finishes. Women's swimming and diving, women's water polo both mens and womens tennis (I believe). A majority of our teams make the MAAC tournaments which usually only has the top 4 to 6 teams. But I believe this is going to be the 2nd straight year w/o a MAAC title in poughkeepsie unless baseball, softball, mens or womens lax or tennis pull through (which it is definitely possible one of them can pull one out)

Making MAAC tournaments are not enough to be considered successful, nor is coming in 2nd if it does not come with Championships every couple of years. I just do not see how we are not a dominant MAAC school? Campus is gorgeous, academics are at the or near top of MAAC, location is pretty good.

they'll finish near the top of the Commish Cup based on consistent 2nd, 3rd, 4th in a bunch of sports and nothing that has been a perennial loser besides, well, you know.
If the spring stick and ball sports can turn those 3rds and 4ths into 1st and 2nds they might even win one of the genders or the overall.
Championships have been hard to come by since Q and Monmouth came along.
TM has a volleyball coaching search to conduct as Coach Amundson has resigned to move home to the Pacific Northwest.

Dunne is a great hire (but for all your Maker bashing you need to include TM in that as well not just give him credit for Dunne) - but the overall state of Marist athletics is mediocre at best. Now you seem to be very content with that and that is ok

Serious question. I hear people mention the Commish Cup from time to time as that’s something we, as fans, should care about. Should we? If so, why?
