[Wayne TenBrink]

Thanks to GVSU for hosting another great event. Thanks to all the volunteers who made it possible.

West Michigan currently holds the record for the highest average qualification match scores in Rebound Rumble (25.35). It also continues to favor the blue bumpers. Since MI went to the district system in 2009 (and I don't know how long before that), the #1 alliance has never won here. I know for a fact that we were shooting a lot better when we had the blue bumpers on yesterday!

Congratulations to 3546, 2054, and 141. You were a formidable force. Tech Vikes - See you in the finals again next year?

Thanks again to 85 and 910 for joining us. Balancing 3 twice in emergency mode was a blast! Unfortunately, we joined a small fraternity of teams that balanced 3 and still lost the match.

Special congratulations also to 4337 (from the bustling metropolis of Holton) for surviving build, putting together a scrappy bot, and taking the coopertition award.
