A technical correction to the listing for Region 14: the runner-up was also from Hamline University School of Law. The University of Minnesota was third place. Pursuant to the competition rules, only one team from each school may compete in the National Finals. So, despite coming in third, the Minnesota team gets to go to the National Finals.
@Anonymous, you're absolutely correct, and I'll edit to make more clear. Hastings, as I understand it, suffered the same fate.
