I know the PNW has never hit Einstein, but I'd have to do some more digging, because I think we might be missing something.
Off the top of my head I know 1983 went to Division Quarters and Semis twice each with a Finals run this year. I thought that 1318 might have gone to the finals in 2009, or that Mean Machine might have gone to the finals in 2012 with 1717/469. Both went out in Semis though. I know 488 went to the Finals on Archimedes in 2009, because I remember watching it. Looking it up I saw 1510 also went to the Finals in 2005 on Curie. Are those the Finalists you are referring too? I think we might be missing one...
