The first question in this thread is for veteran firsters. In the past have rookie teams been able to win regionals. I think that we(1218) were mainly able to win a regional and have such success because of the simplicity of this game. A good pusher and strategy was enough. Has the game worked this well in favor of rookies in the past?

Second, Which other rookies won regionals? I am just curious.

I know last year was the first year I was really like, "Wow... there are some darn good rookies" :ahh:

This year, the trend continues... and I also know now what it's like to be on one of them :yikes:

There was no regional the first year, just one competition in NH.
