Ohio Wesleyan University is in third place in the North Coast Athletic Conference All-Sports title chase.

Ohio Wesleyan compiled 52½ points during the fall 2022 season, posting finishes of fourth or better in 5 of the 7 fall sports, including second-place finishes in men's soccer and field hockey, a second-place tie in football, a third-place finish in volleyball, and a third-place tie in women's soccer.

DePauw is in first place in the standings with 56½ points.  The Tigers won conference championships in field hockey and football.  Denison is in second place with 54½ points, followed by Ohio Wesleyan (52½), Kenyon (48½), Wittenberg (45), Wooster (34½), Oberlin (34), Wabash (19), and Hiram (14½).

The NCAC all-sports champion receives the Dennis M. Collins All-Sports Trophy, given annually to the school that performs the best across the NCAC's 23 sports. Ten points are awarded for a first-place finish, 9 for a second, 8 for a third, and so on. Men's and women's performances are combined, exemplifying the NCAC's commitment to equity and balance among programs. Wooster won 3 of the first 4 all-sports championships, interrupted once by Denison. Ohio Wesleyan followed with a 6-year run leading to titles by Wooster (twice), Wittenberg (once), and Denison (9). The Battling Bishops won the next 2 titles and tied Denison for the crown in 2008-09. Denison is the defending all-sports champion.

Denison leads the way with 165 team championships during the NCAC's 39 playing seasons.  Ohio Wesleyan is next with 157 titles, followed by Kenyon (132), Wittenberg (112), Wooster (84), DePauw (39), Wabash (31), Oberlin (26), and Hiram (2).
