among the league's 14 members.
The Red Wolves made a three-place jump in the league's all-sports standings from 2022-23, posting their best finish for a full athletics year since 2015-16 and tying their third best this century (since 2000-01). A-State won the Bubas Cup Trophy in 2019-20 when 10 of the conference's 18 sports at the time were scored.
Arkansas State averaged 7.9 points per sport, which tied James Madison for the second highest in the league, and finished just 12.5 total points behind Bubas Cup-champion Texas State. The Sun Belt's 14 members the last two years are the most in the history of the league, and 11 of those schools compete in more sports that count toward the Bubas Cup standings than A-State.
