Cameron/SSS tiebreak:
(1) Record vs. Common Opponents ..... both teams losses all came against top 4 teams (BCI/SJAM/WCI/KCI). Tie.

(2) Strength of Schedule Tiebreak - goes to Southwood. I had it calculated earlier but forgot to include today's wins (i.e. the EDSS win for today was the one that boosted SSS into 5th place, as Cameron did not play EDSS. SSS wins the tiebreak 74-73).

***Please note that the above is unofficial and I can be wrong at times!***
