The one year the competition was in New Haven the team spirit seemed to pick up and I think this is because it was easy to have cheer wars across the field.

Hopefully this will pick up again, seeing that the UTC New England Regional isn't at the Meadows anymore, but rather at the new Connecticut Convention Center.
As for team spirit, if you watch
this video from the 1993 Competition, the level of team spirit is more than evident. The level of team spirit then was probably as much as it is now.
