BEAVER CUP POINTS-EARNING TABLE The idea behind Beaver Cup is to create a culture of excellence through rewarding excellence. Each MSU Athletics team will compete against each other through Athletics, Academics, Community Service, and Student-Athlete Development success. Whichever team accumulates the most points (Spring/Fall) at the end of the year will receive the coveted Beaver Cup for that calendar year.
