I say continuity and student determination.

Continuity because it helps to have veteran students/mentors that have been around the FIRST block. These veterans have seen a wide array of problems solved with an even wider array of solutions.

Student determination because no matter how veteran the mentor is, at the end of the day the students are going to run the team. I've seen extremely determined students drive entire teams to victory, and a lack of these students drive even more teams to failure.
