Due to Illinois State University, Washington University in St. Louis and Miami University (Ohio) all finishing 3-5, the tie is broken per league rules, “If more than two teams are tied in won/loss records, goal differentials among the teams tied serves as the tiebreaker to determine the best team within the group until only two teams remain.”  As Washington defeated Miami (11-6 W) and fell to Cincinnati (9-6 L) for a +2 goal differential – compared to -1 differentials for Miami (11-6 L vs. Washington, 8-4 W vs. Cincinnati) and Cincinnati (9-6 W vs. Washington, 8-4 L vs. Miami), Washington claims the No. 5 seed.  The tiebreaker then reverts back to head-to-head with Miami taking the No. 6 seed due to its 8-4 win over Cincinnati; Due to Miami (Ohio), Saint Louis University and Wittenberg University not fielding full teams at the championship and forfeiting all their games, the trio do not earn final placement in the division standings; As Calvin did not compete during the regular season, the team does not earn a regular season placement.
