Power Points

Team A picks up 10 points for every win its opponent earns, PROVIDING Team A has defeated Team B. Example: TEAM A (AAAA) 4-0 defeated TEAM B (AAAA) 2-2 TEAM A  gets 100 basic points plus 20 power points because to-date TEAM B has 2 wins. Obviously, the more wins your opponent earns during the season, the more power points your team will receive.
