Our operator became our base driver two weeks before the event and the operator at Champs was brought onto the drive team at the same time. We needed our drivers to gain confidence in the robot and get as much experience at scoring from the key as possible. Spending the extra 45s scoring made a huge difference in their performance as the event progressed.

There was no nefarious intent to deny our partners or opponents co-op points though. We simply needed to maximize our own performance and our attractiveness to potential alliance captains, which we successfully did.
