Wow! Great job guys, can't wait to compete with you next week!

And also a great job to 558 and 3467 with 3 blue banners.

This screenshot is truly amazing to me. To even have our number up there with some of these hall of fame and perennial powerhouse teams is a massive honor.

Congratulations 125 you guys earned it! But I still think you are crazy! ;)

I can now say competing for 3 consecutive weekends (with the 4th coming this weekend) is in fact crazy. We're certainly enjoying the ride, but it may be one of those where one ride is enough.

After St. Louis, its possible to have a total of 7. :)

Congratulations on your successes the past 3 weeks.

Thanks Glenn. We're preparing as hard as we can and will give it our best shot to keep adding.

I'm curious why you switched your drive team the week before district champs. Was it a "spread the wealth" ideology or was it some other reason? Also was the decision made ahead of time or not?

Good luck at District Champs and hopefully Championship as well!

Going into the season we knew we were not going to attend a 'travel' regional for the inaugural NEFIRST season. We decided on 3 district events with hopefully a DCMP after. After NEFIRST opened registration to all teams for a 3rd event, there were still several open slots at events left over. We found out it was feasible for us to register for a 4th event and decided if we did so, we wanted to try something new and send an all-girls squad.

The rookie drivers were slated to drive at Pine Tree as soon as we signed up for the event. The success at previous events was not going to be a factor in who we had drive in that event, as we only signed up for the 4th one for them.

The 'rookie' drivers looked anything but that on the field and kept our streak alive. One of the most proud moments I've ever had as a member/mentor of a FIRST team.

So, we've played 4 districts but we've also had an entire districts worth of replays (12), and a preseason event on this bot (10 matches). With our 54-18-0 record that comes out to 94 matches of Aerial Assist under brutal New England defense.

Just some fun facts.

I also heard that two of the drivers on the rookie drive team were also your Chairman's presenters! What a fantastic weekend for those ladies!

Thanks Mrs. Mmm. We're so proud of them this weekend and can't wait for next weekend.

I'll assemble our chairman's material later (censoring out full names) but for now, heres our video

Having known these mentors from the time they were freshmen at Northeastern and seeing them mature into the mentors they are gives me extreme pride in working with them as a Senior Mentor (and friend) in many of the endeavors they have accomplished. From organizing Beantown Blitz to hosting Getting in Gear ( a preseson training seminar) this group is just beginning to hit their stride as mentors.

To the students from Boston Latin, Revere and Brookline HS --I hope you appreciate what you have. (I know you do!) Great job! A 3peat and a CA is no small task. Hang on, the ride is just beginning.:)
