They've been regional winners and Championship first round picks for three years running. They're elite in my book.

(Though it wasn't as successful, I still love their 2009 robot)

Are they extremely good, yes. I wouldnt consider them elite until they win and be consistent early picks at champs for 5 years. There are alot of teams that are regional winners and early picks for trends of 2-3 years at a time; but it is a select few who can do it after the "changing of the guard" after sending off those 4 year students.

I do see 1986 joining the class of elite teams in the next year or so because of the uptrend of quality of robots and quality of robot productivity at competitions.

I'd say 1986 was a top 15 team this year IMO.

Anyways, back to the original post, very cool display! Our team has a small trophy case and we don't have anywhere to display our banners in the school. Congrats guys!

Just to clarify since it was mentioned, we were #3 captains at champs in 2010 and 2012, not draft picks. 4th pick in 2011.

Our school would only hang banners if we purchased, from our own money, the official banners in the school colors. We chose not to have banners hung.

They are currently being displayed in the store front of our space at the Cincinnati Mall.

Very cool Team Titanium! You guys keep raising the bar a little higher and higher all the time, don't you? :cool: If qualifying for elite status has anything to do with how many teams follow you to see what you come up with next, count 3528 among your numbers.
