Although Provo and New Mexico both finished the season with 14 points, UNM takes fourth place because of its greater number of wins.
See also the bracket diagram at Utah State's page.
The league playoffs were in the form of a four-team double-elimination tournament held at the Weber Ice Sheet in Ogden, UT February 26-28, 1998 and hosted by Utah State. Since Colorado could not participate due to a scheduling conflict, the three other teams in the tournament were Weber State, New Mexico and Provo.
My personal take on the tournament, starting with the All-Schlobotnik Team and getting less serious from there.
