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.
