The CACC Sportsmanship Awards are determined by the total number of votes the institution received over the course of the fall, winter, and spring seasons in all sports, divided by the total number of sports competed in by the institution during the 2022-23 season. 
 
Each sport's team sportsmanship award is voted on by the conference's head coaches in their respective sport. Head coaches speak with their student-athletes prior to voting to gain feedback on which opposing teams demonstrated outstanding sportsmanship and character throughout the season.
