The Pits are located in the adjacent, level-access Sports & Rec Center.

As for the BC's.. they are located on the centerline, 15" apart center-to-center.

Thanks for letting me know - I'll make sure the various groups on the team know where to be!

That was perhaps one of the coolest robotics things ever! Glad to have worked with you and 175 on that alliance.

With so many of the CT teams at the State Championship, I'm surprised to see so many of them doing back to back offseasons especially toward the end of the school year.

Blah, why can't it be Friday afternoon already!:rolleyes:

For the Gaelhawks BattleCry is a tradition not to be missed. Besides the CT State Championship is only on Saturday so they didn't miss any school. For us the bigger issue was the kids that had to leave early to get ready for prom. :)

We're in as a full competitor! Psyched to get to play again with so many great robots, and some we haven't had the pleasure of seeing yet.:o

Glad to see you guys made it in! You all had a fantastic performance at the CT State Championship, and I hope you can repeat it at BattleCry!

I also hope everyone is excited for the team social on Friday night! We're putting in a lot of work to make it fun for everyone. There will be board games, a whole slew of party-style video games, VEX robots to play with and more.

In fact, the thing I am looking forward to the most is going to be Andy Grady's game show, a FIRST version of the Match Game! You certainly don't want to miss this, so make sure you catch it at the Campus Center stage, right in the doors are you come inside from eating at the ice cream bar!

Also, during the day on Saturday, we will be hosting BattleCry trivia! We have a whole slew of trivia questions that we will be displaying on the big screen between each match. You can text your answer to a number that will be displayed on the screen. The person with the most points will win a great prize! And heck, you might even learn a few things about FIRST in the process.

I hope everyone is ready for a fun time at BattleCry this year!

Good to see other CT teams also have their priorities straight. We have never missed BattleCry!

We miss March a little too much...

I'm so happy we decided to return to BattleCry last year after a number of years' hiatus. It's all the awesomeness of a regional condensed into a smaller event (and cheaper, too!); in the future, we wouldn't miss it for the world.

CT Championship was awesome (or so I heard), and we're fresh off a return to eliminations ready for another awesome weekend. Can you tell I'm excited?

The pits are up and field setup starts at 10AM Thursday. If anyone is in the area and wants to help, just stop on by!

Can't wait to see 54 amazing teams on Friday!
