The 1st and 2nd highest team will receive a one round bye to the semi finals. Each round will be two game total pin fall BAKER with added handicap to the higher handicapped team.

Highest average from the last two seasons (2024-2025), (2023-2024) (also with access to other data bases, ie. collegiate, UBA etc.) will be used if 21+ games were completed.
