I'm not saying any of these powerhouse teams are bad, just that a lot of powerhouse east coast teams that are equally good will have less regional wins in comparison.
I agree, but also suggest the same could be said if the West Coast powerhouses went to East Coast regionals.
Hawaii in '08 was a great indication of teams from both ends attending, which would have been even more exciting had the Canadians and Midwest teams attended.
The example definitely needs to include 39, 60 and 987. We cant forget the former Gila Monster team (they are good)!
