Forfeit procedure:
- Using all scores that are currently available as of February 16, 2024,
scores were averaged by side.
- The average scores were applied for the “winning” school in the
forfeit situation, depending on the side (i.e., 113 for Plaintiff
forfeit win and 111 for defense forfeit
win).
- No score was given to a forfeit loss.
