Girls basketball playoff scenarios (UPDATED)

Hey gang, it looks as if the Lady Bears likely don't have a shot at league playoffs after all. Something I didn't know that the second tiebreaker for leagues is record against section opponents (my mistake). If E-town wins tonight and Solanco loses, both teams will be 8-8 in league play and tied for second place in Section Two. Now, the first tiebreaker is head-to-head, and the Bears and Mules split their season series this year 1-1.

The second tiebreaker is record vs. section opponents, and even if Solanco loses tonight, they would only have two section losses, which is one more than the Bears have right now. But that doesn't mean E-town's game tonight against Lebanon doesn't mean anything. After all, the Lady Bears are still playing for a district playoff spot, which they will earn with a win tonight.
