And the numbers maven rises up again in dispute of wild-eyed claims.
Sorry, Bill, but just as SF never had 20, SB never had 7 in one year. In
fact, never even had 7 trophies. Best year was '88, when South Bend had 4
champs out of 6 trophy winners (STILL a very good ratio for a medium-small
Region). SB also had 6 in '95 with 2 champions.
In fact, other than San Francisco a bunch of times and New England once
(1985), NO region has has seven champions in one Nationals. Other than SF,
six champs has been done seven times, two each for New England, Northwest
and Cal Club, once by Continental Divide.
