2. 1678 - focusing on the center containers and stacks of 5 from the HP station, they finished a 5 banner season, winning CVR, Sac, SVR, Newton, and Einstein.
3. 971 - despite being eliminated in semis at Sac they made finals at SVR and were the first seed on Carver, grabbing two containers in auto and doing cycles of 6 from the HP station.
4. 1671 - made semis at CVR and Sac as captain of the 4th and 2nd alliances, they somehow made it to 2nd pick of 118/1678 on Newton, where they did 6 stack cycles from the HP.
5. 701 - capping their HP stacks with center containers picked off in teleop, they were finalists at CVR, Sac, and Lone Star.
Other teams: 2085, finalists at Sac and SVR with another HP stacker, and 846, who made semis at SVR and is one the best teams from northern CA to not make it to champs. I'm not entirely sure if 973 is considered northern or southern CA, since they're basically halfway between San Jose and LA, so I didn't include them (the list was also hard enough as it is...)
I just realized that out of these 7 teams, 6 stacked only from the HP station as far as I know.

For California as a whole this year, I would put 1671 above 971 because they were better at Sacramento, and they returned to that level in eliminations at Champs. I also would put 2085 above 701, but barely, again because of their Sacramento and SVR performances.
Interestingly, the only Southern California team that I would slot into this group is 330 as they made Einstein. 973 looked to be just below this group this year. This seemed to be a down year for Southern California, especially compared to the standout year they had in 2014.
