SACRAMENTO, Calif. – St. Francis captured its fourth all-time Delta League All-Sports Championship, presented to the member school with the best overall performance across the league's sponsored sports. The Troubadours won or tied for five of the 10 possible championships in 2022-23: cross country, volleyball, basketball, soccer and swimming & diving.

St. Francis previous won the all-sports banner in 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2021-22. There were no such championships awarded in 2019-20 and 2020-21 due to the COVID-19 pandemic reducing those school years.

The Troubies won the title with 60.5 points, with Davis (55) and Pleasant Grove (49) trailing behind. Franklin (41), Cosumnes Oaks (25.5), Elk Grove (18) and Sheldon (15.5) compose the remaining field.

Besides the five championships, St. Francis scored six second-place points for each of golf and water polo. Softball's win over Sheldon on Wednesday put the Troubies into a three-way tie for second, even though the Troubies led the overall tiebreaker for playoff seeding purposes. Tennis tied for third place with Franklin for 4.5 points. 

The scoring system grants points on an 8-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis with teams sharing points in the event of a tie for a place. The team's lowest score is then dropped, and the seven member schools are ranked according to the remaining sum. The determination for league finish varies by sport, ranging from a championship meet (e.g. cross country), win-loss record (e.g. basketball) or a multi-faceted system (e.g. golf).

The Delta League sponsors 10 championships: cross country, golf, tennis, volleyball, water polo, basketball, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, and track & field. Lacrosse is the lone St. Francis varsity sport not included in the all-sports award, as only two of the league schools carry the sport.
