Detailed breakdown of how Joshua's M-S-C-O tiebreaks were calculated. Tiebreaks are used to order players who finish with the same score, in the order M, then S, then C, then O. Byes have no opponent, so they are listed but not counted in the opponent-based tiebreaks.

M - Modified Mean [7.5]

The Modified Mean adds up the scores of every opponent Joshua Balderas has played, then discards one of them depending on how Joshua Balderas is doing.

Joshua's score (4.0 of 5.0 possible) is more than 50% of the possible points, so the lowest opponent score is discarded.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score	Counted?
1	Megan Guajardo	0.0	Discarded
2	Enrique Cantu	2.5	Counted
3	Jeffrey Wang	4.0	Counted
4	Justin Lozano	0.0	Counted
5	Demarco Avila	1.0	Counted
Modified Mean		7.5

S - Solkoff [7.5]

The Solkoff is the combined score of every opponent Joshua Balderas has played, with nothing discarded. A higher Solkoff means Joshua Balderas faced tougher opposition.

Round	Opponent	Opponent's Score
1	Megan Guajardo	0.0
2	Enrique Cantu	2.5
3	Jeffrey Wang	4.0
4	Justin Lozano	0.0
5	Demarco Avila	1.0
Solkoff		7.5

C - Cumulative [12.0]

The Cumulative tiebreak adds together Joshua's running score after each round. Early wins count more, because they carry forward into every later round's total.

1	1.0	1.0
2	1.0	2.0
3	0.0	2.0
4	1.0	3.0
