CURRENT STANDINGS  |  ANNOUNCEMENT PRESS RELEASE (Jan. 23, 2006)

The SunTrust River City Rumble is a season-long series between Jacksonville's two Division I institutions - Jacksonville University and the University of North Florida that was founded in fall 2005.

It was officially named and announced on Jan. 23, 2006, at a press conference on the UNF campus.

Jacksonville University and the University of North Florida battle annually for the "SunTrust Old Wooden Barrel," which is awarded to the school with the most victories over the other during a school year.

The "SunTrust Old Wooden Barrel" will be housed in the winning school's athletic department until the conclusion of the final event of the following year.

How The SunTrust River City Rumble Works...
Jacksonville and North Florida both field teams in 12 sports (men's and women's soccer, volleyball, men's and women's cross country, men's and women's basketball, baseball, softball, men's and women's tennis and men's golf).

Each time the Dolphins and Ospreys face each other, the game will count toward the River City Rumble standings. The exception is individual sports (i.e. cross country and golf) where the team that finishes higher at the Atlantic Sun Conference Championship will earn one win for its school.

For the 2005-06 school year, the teams are tentatively scheduled to face each other 18 times. To claim the "SunTrust Old Wooden Barrel," one of the schools would have to win 10 events.

Here's the breakdown of the number of competitions between the two schools during the 2005-06 school year:

3 - baseball
2 - softball, volleyball, men's and women's basketball
1 - men's and women's soccer, men's and women's cross country, men's golf, men's and women's tennis, women's indoor track and field, women's outdoor track and field

The school with most wins will receive the "SunTrust Old Wooden Barrel" at the end of the year. In the event of a tie this year, the "SunTrust Old Wooden Barrel" will go to the school that has a higher finish in the Atlantic Sun Conference all-sports standings. In ensuing years, any tie in the standings will keep the trophy at the previous year's winner.
