Here's a detail:

Ali Crocker switched from CSU to SMOC.

(this might help explain the fact that CSU was 3rd)

Yea, Ali is a great team oriented person and competitor.  She chose to support her new team.  I think US Orienteering needs more clubs with competitive teams.  It would be great if HVO could field a team.

The OUSA-affiliated club that has map-stewardship over some of the most iconic orienteering terrain in North America.

@ Guy-O:

DVOA won because of a team effort, not because Ali Crocker switched her club. And I hope next year HVO will manage to have at least one team.
