POMONA, Calif. – Cal Poly Pomona has claimed their second straight Cal Poly Clash title, accumulating 7.5 out of the 10 possible points in the second edition of the year-long rivalry against CCAA foe Cal Poly Humboldt.
This rivalry, introduced back in September of 2024, is contested across 10 sports, each representing a point toward the annual title. The series includes head-to-head matchups in men's and women's basketball, men's and women's soccer, volleyball, and cross country, with track & field and diamond sports (softball for Humboldt, baseball for Pomona) also counting toward the final tally.

Scoring Structure
There are 10 total points for each year. The school that accumulates the most points at the end of spring competition will be crowned the Cal Poly Clash champion for that year. Each sport will award 1 point, with half points given in the event of a tie. If the two schools face off in the postseason (CCAA Tournament or NCAA Tournament), those results will be included in the head-to-head record for that year.
- Men's Basketball (1 pt) - winner of season head-to-head
- Women's Basketball (1 pt) - winner of season head-to-head
- Men's Soccer (1 pt) - winner of season head-to-head
- Women's Soccer (1 pt) - winner of season head-to-head
- Volleyball (1 pt) - winner of season head-to-head
- Men's Cross Country (1 pt) - higher finish at CCAA Championships
- Women's Cross Country (1 pt) - higher finish at CCAA Championships
- Men's Track & Field (1 pt) - higher finish at CCAA Championships
- Women's Track & Field (1 pt) - higher finish at CCAA Championships
- Diamond Sports (Baseball/Softball) (1 pt) - higher finish in their respective CCAA standings
Since Humboldt does not have a baseball team and Pomona does not have a softball team, the two diamond sports will receive points based on whichever finishes higher in their respective CCAA standings. If both programs finish in the same place (e.g. 1st), then each will receive half a point.
