They scatter
The league runs no tournament of its own. The association runs in-season tournaments and the state tournament, bracketed by classification.
Buffalo go into Class A alone, six clubs into Class B, and six into Class C Region 6. So a thirteen-club table resolves into three separate competitions.
Buffalo arrive at 19-5, Hutchinson and Howard Lake both at 19-8.
High Cheese builds and runs a bracket seeded off the standings a league already keeps.
