How Team Standings Are Calculated:
We use a set of ranking criteria to determine team standings each week. Here's how it works:

1 - Primary Ranking: – Wins:
Teams are ranked first and foremost by total number of wins.
2 - 1st Tiebreaker – Head-to-Head Record:
If two or more teams have the same number of wins, we look at the results of the games they played against each other. The team with the better record in those matchups will rank higher.
3 - 2nd Tiebreaker – Common Opponents:
If teams are still tied, we compare how each team performed against shared opponents.
4 - Additional Tiebreakers (if needed):
If there's still a tie, we continue down the following list until the tie is broken:
◦ Points Against
◦ Power Index
◦ Point Differential
◦ Points Scored
◦ Ranking Points
These criteria help ensure fair and consistent rankings throughout the season.

Note: In leagues using "Set/Match" scoring (volleyball), Points Scored and Points Against refer to the number of sets won or lost.

The Power Index is a strength-of-schedule metric that is calculated by summing the Ranking Points of each team's vanquished opponents.

Parenthesized numbers indicate wins or losses by forfeit.

When calculating Ranking Points, forfeits may be weighted differently than normal wins and losses.
