This season was a unique one for New York men’s players. New York Empire played this season missing many former players due to New York PoNY’s increased time commitments this season. PoNY missed some Empire players who could not or did not want to make that level of commitment (some even who chose to play for Raleigh Ring of Fire), and may have benefited from their appearance on the field.

Ann Arbor Hybrid took the lone bid from the Great Lakes region, which had four top 20 teams according to the Ultiworld power rankings. They finished second at Nationals and clinched a bid to the World Ultimate Club Championships in 2022.
