That is called common opponent. But not every coach knows every kid from every team and every score of every match. Unless this exact senario was brought up by the coaches in the seeding meeting it could be either one. So it generally goes to best record, state qualifier, state placer. The boys should sort it out this weekend. Some year 1,2,3, & 4 at subs will reverse the order at districts and state. I have seen the top 4 from subs place in the top four at state in a different order. It is time for the kids to be on their A game.
