Default Torque sequence for water pump

Is there a specific torque sequence for reinstalling water pump bolts? I've found the torque specs, but haven't been able to find if a sequence or pattern should be used when torqueing back down.

There may be a specific order but all I've ever done is just tighten one bolt from each side, alternating back and forth.
