It is very possible that it's either a piece of the awarded plant, or a selfing of it. I don't think it was ever mericloned. But I think that Santa Barbara Orchid Estate got a hunk of it (maybe most of it) and they've been selling pieces from time to time, probably where Orchid Design got it. (There's a fair amount of incest on the left coast...) I have a small piece (that was leafless and rootless when I got it, slowly recovering...) that I got along with some other things that I inherited after taking care of the Rowland Collection plants in Pat Rowland's last years after her manager was disabled by a stroke. But I know that quite a few Rowland plants ended up at Santa Barbara Orchid Estate over the years, and I suspect that was one of them.
