| Team | Points |
| #1 Lexington - Clarke | 1006 |

| This scatter plot shows how teams' scores relate from the 2007-2008 season to the season a year earlier.
A point along the diagonal line means that team's score was unchanged from the previous season; a point in the
red area
means the score was lower for 2007-2008, and the
green area
means that team did better in 2007-2008.
Some interesting points: 1 is Lexington Clarke, with the highest score in the league, and which broke 1000 points for the season with 1006;
2 is Newton Oak Hill, which had the largest point increase over the previous year: 490 to 702! And the team is mostly 7th graders, so watch out next year. This chart only shows teams which participated in both years. The maximum possible 5-meet score total is 1080.
