As usual, it was a blast competing in the NURC! The game designers really outdid themselves this time; attacking moving targets with a robot underwater is something that everyone should experience at some point in their lifetime.

I can't help but wonder though, with all the hype and excitement over the past few years over a potential water game, why aren't there more teams leaping at the opportunity to compete in a water-based robotics competition like NURC or MATE? I have seen plenty of FRC teams with enough skill and perseverance to beat out some of the top university teams in this field... what do we have to do to get more FIRST teams submerged?
