University of Texas gets 2nd place in 2005 Sports Academy Directors' Cup

[Phil C]

This award takes into consideration all sports both men and women's sports. Stanford won first place with a score 1,209.25 to UT's second place of 1075. It must be noted that Stanford does have more sports that they do well in that UT doesn't have sports that Stanford has such as Men and Women's Water Polo, Men and Women's Fencing, Men and Women's Gymnastics, Men's Soccer, Men's wrestling and Women's Lacrosse.
Texas edged out UCLA who got third place with 1074 points. It must be remembered that UCLA also has more sports they do well in such as Men and Women's Water Polo, Men's Soccer, and Women's Gymnastics.

Overall probably a moral victor for UT and great success in their programs.

21. Nebraska
24. Oklahoma
25. Baylor
26. Texas A&M
41. Missouri
44. Oklahoma State
45. Colorado
56. Texas Tech
60. Iowa State
61. Kansas
77. Kansas State

Baylor was 4th in the Big 12

Pretty impressive if you ask me since Baylor competes in 4 or 5 less sports than most of the schools around them so they dont get any points for those sports while other schools do....And in my opinion Horns had a better year than Stanford....

Stanford does better becuase, of all the sports like:

• Crew - Men & Women
• Fencing - M & W
• Field Hockey - Women
• Gymnastics - Men
• Gymnastics - Women
• Lacrosse - Women
• Sailing - M & W
• Soccer - Men
• Synchronized Swimming
• Volleyball - Men
• Water Polo- Men
• Water Polo - Women
• Wrestling

Texas dosen't have any of these that Stanford has as a t the NCAA level. If i'm wrong don't go crazy.
