The higher seeded team when two teams have the same record after completion of pool
play will be determined by the winner of their head to head competition.
To determine the seeding when three teams have the same record after completion of
pool play, we must use the plus/minus formula. Only games involving those teams
that are tied will be used and their is a 15 point cap on margin of victory.
Lowest plus / minus is eliminated from tie and they finish 3rd
We then have two teams left and we go back to their head to head result
Please see below for an example:
Team #1
Won 2 Lost 1
Beat #2 by 4 pts
Lost to #3 by 8 pts
Beat #4 by 18 pts
Team #2
Won 2 Lost 1
Lost to # 1 by 4 pts
Beat #3 by 16 pts
Beat #4 by 20 pts
Team #3
Won 2 Lost 1
Beat #1 by 8 pts
Lost to #2 by 16 pts
Beat #4 by 3 pts
Team #4
Won 0 Lost 3
Lost to #1 by 18 pts
Lost to #2 by 20 pts
Lost to #3 by 3 pts
We do not use the scores of any games involving Team 4 as they are not involved in the tie
Team #1 has totals of +4 amd -8 = - 4
Team #2 has totals of -4 and + 15 = +11
Team #3 has totals of +8 and -15 = - 7
Lowest plus / minus is eliminated from tie and finishes 3rd. In this case it is Team # 3 with a -7
We now have two teams tied and we go back to their head to head results
Team #1 is 1st because they beat team #2 head to head
