The regular season has wrapped up and the matchups are now established. As a reminder, seeding is determined by points, then wins, head to head, and then point differential. The three games per team will be played over the next four weeks, so each team will be idle one of those weeks. The schedule for the next four weeks is now available on AOTHA.com.
