All the squads who represented... Did a great job in competing and proportionately garnered their fair share of medals as well. Gracie Barra showed up with an enormous squad who all competed and respectively did really well. I'm not saying the team results would've been different, just more evenly distributed amongst the squads and teams as the number of competitors increased. Just stating the balance. GB is obviously doing great things and as their team grows (I think they've been around less than two years?) we'll see more.
