This is the 21st annual HCAC Commissioner's Cup, and the honor is awarded to the institutional athletic department that registers the most all-sports points in both men's and women's athletics over the course of the academic year in the HCAC's 22 championships across all affiliate sports. 

Rose-Hulman suffered a narrow loss to the Transylvania Pioneers by five points in the Commissioner's Cup standings with scores of 146.83-141.83. The Fightin' Engineers have claimed nine HCAC Commissioner's Cups in school history, and the last time Rose-Hulman won the award was last year during the 2024-25 season.

The Women's All-Sports Trophy was won by Transylvania, with Rose-Hulman being named the runner-up, trailing by 16.67 points in the final standings. On the women's side, the Fightin' Engineers have only won the All-Sports Trophy once in school history, during the 2017-18 season. 

The athletic department, led by Interim Athletic Director Seth Woodason, totaled eight regular-season or conference-tournament titles this year. Sports that won championships included men's cross country, women's soccer, men's swimming & diving, men's indoor track & field, women's indoor track & field, men's outdoor track & field, men's tennis, and women's tennis.
