Re: Kettering District!

Congratulations to the winning alliance: 2337, 33, and 4294!

2337, you were first on our pick list and really improved throughout the competition. 33, you improved a TON since your first couple matches and really figured out the strategy for this game. 4294, your bridge balancing skills were phenomenal.

I would like to thank 862 for picking us and 3601 for joining our alliance. We knew that 3601 would work great for our plan in autonomous, but we had no idea that 862 would fit in perfectly! 6 three-pointers in autonomous is an amazing feat. Car Nack said it couldn't be done, and we proved him wrong.

Everyone should watch the video of our autonomous working in the finals if such a video ends up existing. It really is amazing... a FIRST Rube Goldberg machine.

The Eagle Imperium will be at Livonia and in the intervening weeks we will fix our problems so that we don't stop moving halfway through matches. I promise!
