Robert is right, not new news. Even though 3729 is a rookie team, it doesn't lack horsepower. It's main mentor (me) has five years FIRST experience and has mentored teams to a regional win and two trips to Atlanta. The other mentors are engineers in aerospace. The students are very sharp and were very trainable to the ways of FIRST. They learned so fast that they helped two other FIRST teams with design. One other thing, it doesn't hurt to have a full fledged CNC machine shop as a major sponsor.
