I just wanted to say that as a Rookie. We were amazed with the level of spirit and cooperation that was present at the GLR.
This is the most impressive competition I have ever seen, or been involved with. What really blew me away was the way the teams lined the field
during the Awards presentation. Just amazing!

As a rookie team I felt we did great in the competition. We are hooked, we cant stop talking about how we are going to approach Nationals!

Just wanted to Congratulate Every team that was at the GLR, Everbody is a Winner!

See You Nationals!!

Best Regards

Welcome to the craziness, Tom.

Team 378 made quite an impression. Your team greatly deserves the Rookie All-Star Award.

Heck, you guys are the 'rookies' and you were giving material to us, a 9 year veteran team, so that we could get our 'bot working! Thanks!

Hey, we were your next door neighbors in the pits, and we were happy to see you win the 'All Star Rookie of the Year' award, but we never got to mention it in the craziness of the last minute rush of the finals. So, congratulations from Team #349. We enjoyed talking to you and your engineers. We didn't even realize you were rookies!

Hope to see you at Motorola Midwest or the Nationals.
