Of those 14 teams, which ones are nationally known as being good teams?

I'm confused. The regionals in question were 1625's Midwest and Lake Superior as compared to 1208's "watered down" Kansas City and St. Louis. On your list 2056, 67, 548, 254, 233, and 1717 attended none of those regionals and have no bearing on the comparison. Reputation is valuable before the event. In hindsight, actual performance would seem a better gauge to judge the strength of a regional. I'll grant you that 1208's St. Louis regional is probably the weakest of the 4.
A decent gauge in my opinion would be the number of teams at a regional who make it to the elimination portion of the world championship.
KC = 5 (1 world champion, 1 division semifinalist, 3 division quarterfinalists, 11 not selected)
MW = 4 (1 world champion, 3 division quarterfinalist, 4 not selected)
LS = 3 (2 division finalists, 1 division semifinalist, 9 not selected.)
SL = 1 (1 division quarterfinalist, 8 not selected.)
Midwest has a great reputation. The level of competition this year was hurt by having Wisconsin on the same weekend. This year the KC regional had more teams qualify for the world championship, advance to the elimination rounds, and advance further in the tournament than any of the other 3 regionals in question. (Wisconsin had several metrics that outperformed both KC and MW this year and probably would have made MW much stronger if the two regionals had not conflicted.)

Again, this entire thread is about this year.
