Thanks to 302 for inviting us to join their alliance and 469 and 2612 for being great partners. After our qualification match with 302, I actually texted our lead scout to bump 302 up a couple of spots because they were a pleasure to work with and would be a great partner in the elimination rounds. So, it was good to get a couple of extra matches being on the same alliance. It's pretty cool to think of all the amazing teams and alliances we had to get through to win the event.
Huge thanks to Steve Ketron and all the other volunteers and organizers for a fantastic event. It is pretty cool to see what this event has become since the first year with 12 teams. The rule changes, especially the minibot point changes, made the game very balanced and exciting. The Hilltoppers will gladly make the 6 hour drive to attend MARC in the comming years!
PS: JPC, are we related?
