I can't help remembering something my son said when the TechnoKats found themselves in Archimedes his Freshman year:I'm so proud of him. ;)

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Well you know us here on 201 would love for you to be on Archimedes! Who else can we argue about our hook with ;) Plus you are our favorite ref!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Just ran some numbers.

26 regional wins (359 has 3- San Diego, Arizona, and Hawaii)
5 regional finalist
4 district wins
2 district finalist
1 Michigan State Champion 1918

Lookin good Archimedes! Eh, everyone will probably be watching Curie and not watch until the insane matches are over! Then they will regret it! :D

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Archimedes is going to be a great division this year. Coming from the MSC,1918 is ready to see what the rest of the country has to offer :]

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Wow! This is gonna be really fun! Just watching the division qualification matches will be amazing. I can't wait for next week :]

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

604 is crazy excited to be competing with many great teams from around our area as well as those from abroad! See you all next week!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

I think the numbers are even higher than this!

Just thinking of a few teams (1, 201, 33, 1918, 3357, 70), I count 5 district finalists and only 3 district wins.

Finalists:
1
33 (twice)
201
1918

Winners:
70
1918
3357

Still, that's a lot of MI power (from only 6 of the many MI teams)!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

3256 is excited to compete with so many great teams. Good Luck! :)

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

I count 41 official event wins (Regionals + districts + MSC) in Archimedes (verified by 1114's scouting database).

That is the most wins of all divisions (Galileo - 37, Curie - 33, Newton - 28).

Additionally, only 25 times did a team in Archimedes not make eliminations. That is the least number of all divisions (Curie - 31, Galileo - 31, Newton - 34).

The average OPR in Archimedes is 2.09. That is the highest of any division (Curie - 1.99, Newton - 1.96, Galileo - 1.74).

We also have the most Chairman's Awards - 17. (Curie - 14, Galileo - 12, Newton - 10).

All in all, this is the deepest and most accomplished division in FIRST this year.

I can't wait.

As I've said before...

Oh boy.

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

This is gonna be fun. Team 45 is in a division with many teams that we have never been with.

Archimedes is gonna rock!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

I would just like to say I'm glad I'm not competing against Archimedes.

The team list is the Energizer bunny. It keeps going and going and going and going and going...

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Team 86 is looking forward to being on this division with our Florida regional championship teammate 1612! and 103 as well->Maybe we'll get the chance to pair up this time =D

Going to be a tough division to win in, but lets crank out the winning Einstein alliance!

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

And will keep going until we win Einstein ;)

Re: Archimedes 2010
 

Archimedes is arguably the toughest and deepest division this year. It's too bad we can't distill all that talent into the three teams going to Einstein. At the end of the day, I hope we aren't just preparing battle scarred cannon fodder for 1114 & 469.
