Not much in the way of defense but I doubt teams like 23 and 125 are gonna be allowed to make a living parking in front of the basket and popping balls in at their leisure all day long especially in St. Louis.

Don't you worry 125 will be able to shoot from wherever we need to....
Yesterday was all manual alignment, shooter speed, and hood angle for us, our drivers did great. We apparently had a bad Ethernet cable to the camera, oh well.
The biggest things I took away from yesterday:
1. Balls under the bridge is a huge issue
2. Teams looking to track penalties in scouting will be nearly impossible
3, balancing on bridges seems sketchy for now, once teams have more practice it should be fine
4. Hopefully they fix the fenders, the red fender at suffield was completely dislodged several times
5. Teams were inconsistent at best from the key, this should improve
6. Defense seemed useless. we parked in front of the fender and teams were able to back up to the key. Also, the high risk of penalties hardly seems worth getting anywhere near a robot shooting from the key. Well see how it plays out
