US mountain team All-time list (3)

Today I've listed the all-time rankings based on percentage behind the winner. I find this an interesting number, sometimes more interesting than overall place. A deep field could knock someone well back in the finish ranking but not show how close he or she finished to the winner. Of course in contrast a "weak" or "strong" winner (whatever that might mean) could alter the results. I like the math and we also use this system to score the mountain series and the New England Trail Series. As you can see below, Brandon's % back ranks second (although he has the best place) and Megan ranks first all-time in the Junior women's category.
