Team 1551 snipes a ball out of the air...

We joked around about doing this, but actually pulled it off at Buckeye. It's at about the 45-second mark on this video: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/21334084

It looks to be around the 45 second mark, for people wondering where it's at.

I've got to say, that's one heck of a shot!

Defense at its best. Congratulations on the achievement. It is amazing how much interesting things that can be done in this year's game. One of our funny moments was when the elevator for the robot broke in a match so the drive team did shots from half court and actually made one in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytad4nd7cNA#t=101s

Next year the GDC needs to add style points into the scoring, so teams can score points in matches for really epic accomplishments like sniping a ball out of midair with another ball. Because honestly, that's just too awesome.
