A question about a 3 team tie, where all 3 teams have beaten each other in a district. The tie breaker goes to a points system involving teams beaten and their win total!

 

My question is this... After the tie breaker has declared a winner, does the tie breaker for the 2nd seed use the same points, or do they then go to the head to head battle between the 2/3 rd place teams?

Points!

ii) If the tie remains, each team tied for the position shall receive one point for each game won by any four of their defeated opponents in all games, except for the games played between any two of the tied teams. All games played shall be counted in applying the tie-breaking procedure, including out of state games, with the exception that a defeated school may be counted only once in the procedure regardless of the number of games played against that particular school. Teams awarded forfeit victories (whether or not a forfeit fee is paid) may count the defeated opponents of the forfeiting team, provided the game was not replaced on the schedule.

iii) If the tie remains after application of provision (ii), an additional defeated opponent’s wins will be added to the point total for each team until the tie is broken and the winner of the tied position declared, or until all games are exhausted.

iv) If the tie for the position involves only three teams, and the application of (ii) and (iii) results in one team being declared the winner of the tied position based on point totals, the highest point total from the application of (ii) and (iii) between the two remaining tied teams shall be declared to hold the next position.

thsrocks is right on target.

 

Once you go to the point system for the tie breaker, you stick with it. The team with the most points wins the tie breaker, the team with the 2nd most gets the next spot, and so on.
