Thanks for the shout out, Coach Norm! As a 3rd year team, I can't tell you how proud we are to be mentioned in the same sentence as those other teams!
We'd also like to thank Jane Young who paid us a HUGE compliment by saying we were operating like a 5-7 year team!
This regional was definitely a coming-of-age experience for 2789 in a lot of ways, and on behalf of our team, we'd like to thank the Discobots & Full Metal Jacket ( 2587 & 1296 ) for accepting our very first alliance invitations, and a big thank you goes out to all the teams, volunteers and staff who made this the smoothest running regional I've seen in my three years of being involved with
FIRST.
We have made and will proudly wear "2011 Alamo Regional Quarterfinalist" buttons next week in Baltimore at the Chesapeake Regional!
