The teams will be determined by won-lost records in a single round-robin format. Ties for any seeding position will be broken as follows: 1. Head-to-Head Centennial Conference competition among tied teams; 2. Records vs. teams in descending order of standing; 3. Game percentage vs. tied teams; 4. Point differential in games vs. tied teams; 5. Coin flip by Executive Director. When any secondary criteria separates one or more tied teams, but does not completely break the tie among all teams involved, re-apply the criteria to all groups of teams still tied, starting with the Conference's primary tiebreaker for all sports (head-to-head Centennial competition). Incomplete Tournament. If the championship tournament cannot be completed and each team has completed at least one tournament contest, the highest remaining seed will be the Conference's champion and automatic qualifier to the NCAA tournament. Otherwise, the top seed as determined by the regular season will receive the automatic qualifier. Cross Country | Field Hockey | Men's Soccer | Women's Soccer | Volleyball
