Peri's dad: Checking out the tote board, girls? Peri: We want to see what we need to make it to the semi-final round, dad. Abby: You get 6 points for a win, 3 points for a tie, 1 point for a shutout, and 1 point each for the first three goals. Peri: The top point-getters advance to the semis. Peri's dad: What happens if there's a total point tie? Abby: It goes to the team that won when they played each other. Peri: If they tied, you compare their total tournament goals scored. Abby: If that's the same, you compare goals scored against. Edith: And if that's the same, the team that can best understand this tote board advances.
