You aren't making it a "true" Triple Crown with this selection. Since the entry requirement to win the Championship Chairman's is first winning a Regional Chairman's award, you actually make it easier to accomplish this feat.
In baseball, although Batting average, RBI's and Home Runs have a tendency to trend in the same direction, it is very common for three separate individuals to lead these categories each year. You eliminate this "separateness" when you recognize the Chairman's CA winner for their Regional win as well. (It would be like tossing Home Run's out and recognizing someone for hitting .300+ average and recognizing them again for the batting average title.)
