- 1 point to the winner of each women's basketball game (two games are contested each season for a total of 2 points granted)
- 2 points to the winner of the best of three series in baseball (previously 1 point to the winner of each wrestling dual meet prior the 2008–09 season, when the Ducks dropped wrestling and added baseball)
- 1 point to the winner of the women's soccer game (.5 points to each school if game ends in a tie)
- 1 point to the winner of each men's golf match (two matches are contested each season for a total of 2 points granted)
