Perhaps you could differentiate between those which were overtime games and those which were not.

I want to make sure I read this right: “that a team has scored 56 or more points and lost”. Why are these two games included? Neither of the losing teams scored 56 points.
South Gwinnett 63, Central Gwinnett 55
West Hall 56, Johnson-Gainesville 55
