Joel,
Seems to me that they will take the order of finish and use that at the next level - regionals in this case. They usually already have the brackets made out - and label each team as "Texas 1", "Lousianna 3", "A Qualifier 7", and so on. They know the maximum number of teams that they will have and this saves the bulk of the paperwork the week before the tournament - this way, the organizers only have to plug the right team name into their qualifying slot. And I have heard of them using the time the final score was reported as a tie-breaker - it's actually kinda common. This is how I think they set up the tournaments - I've never been a part of it and don't really want to be. But, if I were setting up a regional, this is likely how I'd do it.
