Undefeated Regional Winners Concurrently
 
I know that 2056, OP Robotics, is undefeated for every Regional event they have went to, but are there any other teams excluding this years rookies who are undefeated at each event they have gone to since creation of their team?

If anyone has any idea, that'd be swell because I have been searching but have not found much.

Oops I put concurrently instead of continually. My bad, it's late.

As Karthik said at GTR-East, "It's one of the most impressive streaks in robotics, if not all of sports". I probably misquoted, but that's the gist of it. What OP has done for the last 10 years is unbelievable, truly remarkable, and unmatchable. Winning a regional is a very difficult thing to do. The playoffs are often times a crapshoot. Robots break, partners' robots break, you get drafted by a bad alliance captain, bad scouting leads to a super alliance forming that is too much to overcome, etc. OP has overcome it all to win 23 consecutive regionals. In my mind it's the greatest streak in any sport at any level. Right up there with UConn's women's basketball team winning 90 consecutive games, and Cal Ripken's 2632 consecutive games played at one of the most brutal positions in sports. Now OP just needs to get that chip!

There are actually multiple teams that, as of this posting, satisfy GDB's criteria.

5601 is currently undefeated at regional events, having won the Australia Regional last year. They have a chance to continue their streak at the Hawaii Regional this year.

5528 is currently undefeated at regional events, having won the FRC Robotic Festival of Montreal last year. This year they are competing again at Montreal.

Good luck to both teams as they attempt to continue their streaks this season!

While no other teams have kept an extended (absolute) regional win streak, there are a few teams right now who have impressive win streaks of their own.

254 has won their past 8 regionals, including one so far this year.
118 has won their past 11 regionals, including one so far this year.

254 also had a 5 regional win streak when they first started, winning all of their regionals in 1999, 2000, and 2001.

I believe 2590 has won Hatboro-Horsham each year for the past 4 or 5 years.

1983 has won every regional/District Championship since 2013, and won every district event played since 2015.

Small correction, we did not win the 2014 Spokane district event. It was our first event that year.

I split the district events away from DCMP/Regionals, I thought i made it clear, ill edit it to make it more so.

359 has won their past 8 regionals, including two this year. They have a 19 regional win/finalist streak, covering all their 2010-2016 regionals.

I don't call one event streaks a streak.

If you want to get nit picky, since the championship is an event there is no team that fulfills the criteria. Otherwise those two teams do fit the question.

OP's post didn't say anything about a "streak," just asked about undefeated teams. If a team were 1-0, I'd certainly call them a team that's won all of their events since creation.

Understandable. But... those are the only teams I could find that fit all of the criteria. Kind of shows how much 2056 is in a league of their own.

One thing about this kind of perfect streak is that you have to start strong. Tindleroot's post shows that other teams currently have long streaks, but the fact of the matter is that having lost regionals, 254 and 118 can never achieve what 2056 has right now. This is all because 2056 won all of their regionals in their first couple years of existence! Really difficult to do.

As tindleroot said earlier, 254 also went 5 events (3 years) undefeated before losing a regional.

Couple more shoutouts:

1574 started out undefeated in regionals for 4 years, from 2005-2008, before losing the Israel Regional in 2009.

3990 started out undefeated in regionals for 2 years, from 2012-2013, before losing the 2014 New York Tech Valley Regional in a close set of final matches.

And the "please don't flame me for thinking this counts" award goes to 2604, who is undefeated in regional competitions since they started in 2008!!!! :D :D ;)

They won the 2008 West Michigan Regional, then Michigan switched to Districts.......

But really, if you don't count the World Championship, then why count district events or district championships? They're clearly not regionals either...
