Playoff Tournament Tiebreakers

Best record in round-robin
Round-robin head-to-head
If two teams are tied for the best record and have played each other in the round-robin, the winner of that game wins the bracket
If more than two teams are tied at the end of the round-robin and one team has beaten all teams that it is tied with, that one team will win the bracket, otherwise the team with the best regular season record will win the bracket.

2. To determine wild card winners:

Teams that finished 2-1 advance and are placed in quarterfinals based on end of regular season seeding until four wild card slots are filled
If there are more than four 2-1 teams, the teams with the top four end of regular season seedings advance
If there are less than four 2-1 teams, the teams that finished 1-2 are then placed in quarterfinals based on end of regular season seeding until all wild card slots are filled
