B. Won-lost percentage of the two teams against all common opponents
C. Won-lost percentage of the two teams versus the highest seed using common opponents only (and proceeding through the last seed, if necessary)
D. Best cumulative winning percentage of all Conference opponents
E. Coin flip by the Commissioner.

2. Three-Team Tie (or more). The following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken: (Note: If the three tied teams have three different records against each other, they shall be seeded in best-percentage order.)

B. Won-lost percentage of the tied teams against all common opponents
C. Won-lost percentage of the tied teams versus the highest seed using common opponents only, and proceeding through the lowest seed, if necessary. In the

D. Best cumulative winning percentage of all Conference opponents.
E. If three or more teams still are tied, the Commissioner will conduct a draw.
