Several Factors come to mind:
  1. Perhaps because that is approximately your position in number of people in the state (actually #8 in 2000).
  2. Some of the larger states have better outdoor climates and probably lose participants to other activities that aren't viable in Michigan
Michigan's position in scholarship rankings probably has very little to do with the season it was played in.
