Stay upright or sit back?
Depending on body structure, staying upright may not be the most feasible option. Sitting back however, can be helped by box squatting more (in my experience).
Yes, sitting back is an issue as well. I feel like I can only sit back so much without almost bending completely over though. But if you say box squatting helped you then I should probably try it out since my limbs are almost as lanky as yours.
You also did a meet a week ago, so your back will probably be exhausted for the next two weeks. I would use a belt until then and then start not using it for secondary exercises to work the core more.
your stance is a little narrower which makes everything balance related harder in my opinion.
