Middle Georgia has secured their spot as the #7 seed in the PBC Tournament and will travel to the #2 seed for round one. The remainder of the seeds will be discussed from lowest seed (#6) to highest seed (#1).
 
Georgia Southwestern and 
USCA are currently tied for fifth in the PBC standings with 12 points. USCA hosts Lander on Saturday, while GSW travel to Clayton State. Neither team can catch Clayton State in 4
th but remain in a battle for the #5 seed.
#5 and #6 Tiebreak: If both teams record the same results, they will remain in a tie, and the tie will need to be broken to decide the #5 and #6 seeds in the PBC tournament. 
 The first step in the tie break process is head-to-head records. GSW won vs USCA on September 24
th in Aiken, and the teams tied on October 25
th in Americus. This gives GSW the upper hand in the tiebreak, meaning should both teams end tied for 5
th place in the standings, GSW would receive the #5 seed and USCA would receive the #6 seed in the PBC Tournament. 
 
 All possible ties for Georgia Southwestern and USCA have been discussed above. 
 
Clayton State has secured the #4 seed in the PBC Tournament and will host the #5 seed in round one. 
 
Lander is currently in third place with 21 points.
Flagler is currently in second with 22 points.
Possible Outcomes:
	- If Flagler win, Lander will remain in 3rd and receive the #3 seed, regardless of the outcome of their game. 
 
	- If Lander loses, they will remain in 3rd and receive the #3 seed. 
 
	- If Lander win, and Flagler lose or tie, Lander will move into 2nd place and receive the #2 seed in the PBC tournament
 
#2 and #3 Tiebreak: If Lander tie, and Flagler lose, both teams will be tied for 2nd with 22 points and will enter a tiebreak. 
The first step in the tie break process is head-to-head records. Flagler and Lander tied their first matchup on September 24
th in St. Augustine. Flagler won the second matchup on October 15
th in Greenwood. This gives Flagler the upper hand in the tie, meaning should both teams end tied for 2
nd, Flagler would receive the #2 seed and Lander would receive the #3 seed in the PBC Tournament.  
 
All possible results for Lander have been discussed above. 
 
North Georgia  currently lead the way with 25 points and a share of the PBC Regular Season Title.
Flagler currently sits in second place on 22 points and are the only team who can still catch the Nighthawks.
The exciting part: Flagler hosts North Georgia on Saturday in the final regular season game. 
Possible Outcomes:
	- If North Georgia wins or the game ends in a tie, North Georgia secure the PBC Regular Season title outright and secure the #1 seed in the PBC Tournament
 
	- If Flagler wins, they will share the PBC Regular Season title with North Georgia
 
#1 and #2 Tiebreak: Should Flagler win, and both teams share the title, the next question is who gets the #1 seed in the PBC tournament? 
The first step in the tie break process is head-to-head records. For there to be a tie for first place, North Georgia and Flagler will both have won one game of the head-to-head, with UNG winning the first game on October 4
th in Dahlonega and for this scenario to be true, Flagler would win on November 1
st in St. Augustine. 
The next step in the tiebreak process is each team's record vs the highest seed not involved in the tie and continue until the tie is broken.
Should Flagler win, Lander will be the highest seed outside of the tie break at #3. Flagler is 1-0-1 vs Lander, North Georgia is 0-1-1 vs Lander. Flagler has the upper hand in the tie break vs North Georgia, and therefore Flagler would receive the #1 seed and North Georgia would receive the #2 seed.
 
All possible results for North Georgia and Flagler have been discussed above.
