kal took the title, followed by UGA, U$C, and then Stanford. Oof. Well, at least it wasn't U$C or UCLA taking the title...
To summarize kal's major point advantages by event (Stanford won major point advantages in other events):
Out of 21 total events, kal had significant (arbitrarily defined as >= +10 pts) advantages over Stanford in nine of them, nearly half, for a total of +141 pts from those nine events. kal's total margin over Stanford was +95.5 pts.Â
It's late, and I should look at this later, but it seemed that kal won with a good deal of upperclass talent, and Stanford had a few underclass youngsters representing in the events where they didn't qualify for the finals. Just an impression from what I remember--I don't know the breakdown of the relay teams though, and relay team points are definitely big money.
