(3476 would also go above 1671 due to their higher point ceiling).
1) 254 (Carson #1 seed)
2) 1678 (Newton #1 pick)
3) 1717 (Carver #1 pick)
4) 973 (Carson #1 pick)
5) 971 (Carver #1 seed)

1671 underperformed during Newton qualifications relative to what they did in their two regionals. They seeded 2nd at Sac ahead of us. This year CA was dominated by NorCal teams (adding 973 to that group for convenience). 2085 and 701 may have been better than any of the SoCal teams as well given what I saw on the webcasts. 1717 wasn't the best of the SoCal teams this year. It's hard to measure how they did because their division was relatively weak.
