Michigan Sports Hall of Fame Cup

The Hall of Fame sponsors the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame Cup, a trophy given to the winner of the season basketball series between Oakland University and the University of Detroit Mercy men's basketball teams.[6] The inaugural trophy, established in 2015, was won by the 2014–15 Oakland Golden Grizzlies men's basketball team. The teams split the season series, but Oakland won the tiebreaker due to having a better Rating Percentage Index (RPI) ranking at the time of the game.
