If a tie exists, the higher seed will go to the team that won the most head-to-head League contest(s) played against the other team(s) involved in the tie. b. If a tie still exists, a comparison of League records will be made between the tied institutions starting at the highest seed and continuing through the lowest seed, if necessary. c.

If a tie still exists, a committee consisting of the athletics directors of each of the institutions not involved in the tie will make a final decision.

Note: the examples are listed in no particular order: 1. strength of schedule 2. overall record 3. computer rankings 4. performance during second half of season ***** This season, Harvard, Dartmouth, and Columbia were tied at 5-2.
