Cornell-Dartmouth Lax

Jeff Hopkins '82
According to Inside Lax, it's 17-4 after 3.

Edit: Now 21-4. If it weren't for the "4", it sounds like a football score. FWIW, I've never seen us score over 20 before, either.

(or, since there's always a head to head winner, is that the only tiebreaker that is needed?)

Harvard leading Duke 10-9 with 6:25 remaining in the 4th.

Edit: tied. Can't depend on Harvard to hold a 2 goal lead against Duke

Ivy Lax tournament tiebreaker rules
1. In the case of two-way ties between teams in the final standings, the higher seed will be determined on the basis of head-to-head competition.

2. In the case of a multiple ties (more than two teams with the same record), the following procedure will be used:

a. The highest seed will go to the team with the best cumulative records against all other teams tied at that spot.

b. Once a highest seed team (among the tied teams) is determined, the tie between the remaining two teams will be determined on the basis of head-to-head competition.

c. This procedure will be completed until all ties are broken.

3. In the case of a multiple tie that cannot be broken on the basis of review of cumulative record against all other teams tied at that spot:

a. The higher seed will go to the team that has beaten the highest seeded team outside of the tie.

b. Once a highest seed (amongst the tied teams) is determined, the tie between the remaining seeds shall be determined on the basis of head-to-head competition.

c. This procedure will be completed until all ties are broken.

4. If a tie still persists, add the goals for and against in the games between the tied teams; team with the greatest goal differential gets higher seed (6-goal maximum differential per game). Once a highest seed (amongst the tied teams) is determined, the remaining seeds shall be determined on the basis of head-to-head competition.

5. If a tie still persists, add the goals for and against the highest seeded team(s) outside of the tied teams. The team with the greatest goal differential against the highest seeded team outside of the tie gets higher seed (6-goal maximum differential per game). Once a highest seed (amongst the tied teams) is determined, the remaining seeds shall be determined on the basis of head-to-head competition.

6. If a tie still persists, the tie will be broken by a random draw conducted by the Executive Director.

7. If this occurs in determining the tournament’s #1 seed, the team first drawn in the random draw selects:

a. To host the tournament and occupy the #3 seed, or:

b. To claim the #1 seed. If drawn teams elects the #1 seed, hosting privileges go to the #2 seed.

8. The first team drawn must select from the above options before the tie between the remaining two teams is broken.

9. The highest remaining seed will go the second team drawn in the random draw, continuing with remaining team(s) given the next highest seed remaining.

10. If any seeds need to be determined by a draw it shall be conducted at 10 AM by the Ivy Office on the Monday prior to the tournament. Institutions are welcome to participate in person or by telephone.

So, if you're thinking about point differentials, there is no need to run the score up beyond a six-goal edge (plus a modest safety factor).

Speaking theoretically, other than games played in Cambridge next weekend.
