Do you understand the math behind the rankings? Your apparent drop can be explained easily if some of the teams you played with scored more points in later regionals. The algorithm doesn't account for different strengths at different times for the same team. It would tend to overcount an improving team's contribution to earlier matches, and thus undercount its partners' contribution.
