Both halves, and the ones called off
The results show the format working: TC Twins 18 St. Michael Angels 3 and TC Twins 6 St. Michael Angels 3 on the same July day, Eden Prairie Saints 16 TC Twins 3, and a St. Mathias Harvest doubleheader against the Twins recorded twice as cancelled rather than deleted.
Keeping both halves of a doubleheader as separate results, and keeping the cancelled pair on the page, is what makes a self-scheduled league's record trustworthy — you can see what was arranged as well as what was played. On High Cheese a final entered once becomes the box score, the standings line and the season record together, with cancellations kept distinct.
