Palomar wins softball bid after losing

An revised tie breaker scenario involving the Palomar College softball team ended with the Comets gaining the Pacific Coast Conference's automatic bid into the Southern California Regional playoffs on Thursday.

Originally a three-way playoff between Palomar, San Diego City and Grossmont was scheduled to determine the conference's automatic bid, with Grossmont facing the winner of a game between the Knights and Comets. The winner from there would have gained the conference's automatic berth.

But according to a Palomar spokesperson, the conference decided on Thursday morning that head-to-head records would determine the bid winner. Palomar, which lost to San Diego City 9-3, then beat Grossmont 7-2, emerged with the best head-to-head records of the three teams, thus earning the berth.
