As of 2025 Season

SEEDING
The twelve (12) teams with the highest win percentage in regular-season Conference play shall qualify for the Tournament.
In the event of a tie or ties in the standings, the tie-breaking procedures set forth herein shall apply.
 
Two-Team Tie.
A tie between two (2) teams shall be resolved in the following sequence:

1. Results of head-to-head competition during the regular season.
2. The winner of the first game of the Conference series between the two (2) tied teams.
3. Win percentage against the highest-placed common opponent in the standings, based on record in all games
played within the Conference, proceeding through the standings. Where another group of tied teams is
encountered, each team’s win percentage against the collective tied teams shall be used as a group, prior to that
group’s own tie-breaking procedure, rather than performance against individual tied teams.
4. Random draw conducted by the Conference office.
 
Multiple-Team Tie.
A tie between more than two (2) teams shall be resolved in the following sequence. After one (1) team has obtained
an advantage and is seeded, the remaining teams shall repeat the procedure. If at any point the multiple-team tie is
reduced to two (2) teams, the two-team procedure set forth above shall apply.

1. Best cumulative win percentage in a “mini round-robin” of head-to-head competition among the tied teams.
If not every tied team has played each other, this step shall be skipped. If all tied teams are not common
opponents, the tied team that defeated each of the other tied teams in a series shall earn the highest seed.
2. Best cumulative win percentage in a “mini round-robin” consisting of the first games of the Conference series
between the tied teams. If not every tied team has played each other, this step shall be skipped.
3. Win percentage against the highest-placed common opponent in the standings, proceeding through the
standings, applying the same group treatment described above.
4. Random draw conducted by the Conference office.
