After a strong showing in the spring by Ohio Wesleyan University, Denison's nine-year run as the North Coast Athletic Conference All-Sports Champion has come to an end.

The Bishops compiled four conference titles and three additional top-five finishes this spring to edge out the Big Red by 1.5 points in the overall standings. OWU trailed Denison by four points following the conclusion of the winter sports season, but championships by the Bishops' baseball, men's golf, men's lacrosse and women's outdoor track & field teams would be enough to send them to a total of 165.0 points becoming the first institution other than Denison to secure the All-Sports crown since The College of Wooster in 1996-97.

Even though Denison surrendered their crown, the Big Red's spring athletic season was nearly as impressive as Ohio Wesleyan's, creating a 13.5 point chasm between second and third place. DU captured championships in softball and women's tennis and logged seven, top-five finishes to close out the year. Overall, Denison totaled three conference titles (women's basketball, women's tennis and softball) and five runner-up finishes (men's tennis, men's lacrosse, men's & women's swimming and diving and men's soccer) while 18 of the 22 NCAC sponsored sports finished in the upper half of the NCAC standings. Over the last five seasons 87% of Denison athletic teams have placed in the top-five in the conference.

The final 2006-07 NCAC All-Sports standings are as follows: 1. Ohio Wesleyan (165.5); 2. Denison (164.0); 3. Allegheny (150.5); 4. Wooster (145.0); 5. Wittenberg (142.5); 6. Kenyon (131.0); 7. Oberlin (105.0); 8. Wabash (63.0); 9. (Earlham (53.5); 10. Hiram (50.0).

In the 23-year existence of the All-Sports Championship Denison leads with 10 overall titles, followed by Ohio Wesleyan's seven championships. Wooster is third with five and Wittenberg captured one title in 1995-96. In calculating the standings, the NCAC awards 10 points for a first-place team finish, 9 for a second, 8 for a third, and so on. Men's and women's scores are combined, exemplifying the North Coast's commitment to equity and balance among programs.
