2025 Tiebreakers
In some cases, we need to break ties other than those at the
top of the division. We need to determine 2nd-4th place in
each division. Officially these are still ties, but we
break the ties to decide how to award BWB Bucks for division
placement and
possibly to figure in which post-season tournament teams
compete. See the
BWB Rules for full tiebreaking criteria. Additionally, there are seeding/home-field
ties that need to be resolved. |
