Central Valley Regnional
 

I haven't seen an official regional thread about this yet, so I figured I would make one.

6 days and counting!
Who's excited?

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

I'm halfway through Silicon Valley, and I'm already thinking about Central! CVR is gonna be so much fun! 256 will be there, with our robot better than ever, and with all the bugs fixed!

256 will be short on man power at the regional, so would anyone like to share the scouting work? Thanks!

Good luck everybody!

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

I'm really excited, it looks like CVR will be very competitive with powerhouses like 1717, 973, 1538, and 254 in the house. I'm looking forward to being a part of it!

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

I don't think 1538 is going, unless I am mistaken. I didn't see their name on the First website.

To added to the list of amazing teams going: 330, 1678, and 1662.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

We'll have to add to this list but so far...

254 - Current World Champs, (won 21 out of 25 regional they've attended)

330 - 2005 World Champs

368 - Hawaii Finalist

973 - Current World Champs, LA Finalist

1662 - Israel Winner (1st seed)

1678 - Sacramento Winner (1st seed)

1717 - LA Winner

3189 - Sacramento Winner

3512 - LA Winner

3669 - Sacramento Finalist

3970 - Sacramento Highest rookie seed

This is looking to be very competitive. I'll post an update on Monday.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Sorry, you're right. I keep getting that mixed up in my head. 1266 and 1622 are the SD teams attending.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Don't forget 971, also a Sacramento Winner, currently ranked #1 at SVR.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

971 is not attending Central Valley regional, just Sacramento, Silicon Valley and Championships. We wish everyone at CVR the best of luck, it's gonna be a real rumble!

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Shoot! Totally knew that. Anyway, we're really excited to go to CVR as well. Good luck to all teams competing.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

No big deal I think you were thinking of 973 not 971 only one number different.

But 1671 is ready to "rumble", they scored 136 Hybrid Points in Sacramento higher than any team at the Silicon Valley Regional. They also have added a few more "tweaks" to the practice bot which will be implemented on the competition bot on Thursday (Won't be surprised if we go from a 90% 2 point shooter to a 3 point one). Not to mention they also have a triple balance up their sleeve, I know I am looking forward to watching them go up against the best of the best. :)

This looks like the event to watch for week 6, maybe a preview of the gameplay at MSC, Champs, or even IRI.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

I count 36 teams that have competed at a previous regional. I count 6 regional champions, 4 finalists, 7 semi-finalists, and 5 quarter-finalists. 10 teams seeded in the top 8.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Here's the updated list:

254 - SVR Winner, Hall of Fame, current World Champions, 22 regional wins

330 - 2005 World Champions, 10 regionals wins

368 - Hawaii Finalists, 5 regional wins

973 - L.A. Finalist, current World Champions

1662 - Israel Winner (1st seed), 3 regional wins

1678 - Sacramento Winner (2nd year in a row, 1st seed)

1717 - L.A. Winner, 5 regional wins

3189 - Sacramento Winner

3512 - L.A. Winner

3598 - Sacramento Finalists

3669 - Sacramento Finalists

3970 - Sacramento Highest Rookie Seed (5th)

Let me know if I missed anyone.

I'm excited.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Hey guys, I was thinking it would be cool to set up a meetup or something outside of the competition, and was wondering what hotels you guys will be staying at.

Team 254 is at

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites - Chowchilla 309 Prosperity Blvd.Chowchilla, CA 93610 Telephone: (559) 665-3300 Fax: (559) 665-5597

Just an idea :D
