 TEAM MEDALISTS.

(A note about team scoring: a team's time is the aggregate of its three fastest finishers.  However, if clubs field more than one team, the fastest teams from each club are scored against each other, then the second fastest are scored against each other, etc.  Therefore if one club fields two teams and another club fields one team, the club with one team will always be scored ahead of the second team from the club with two teams, regardless of their actual aggregate times.)
