Re: 2012 Washington DC Regional

FIRST Team 467 would like to thank FIRST Team 357 and FIRST Team 2914 for joining our alliance and becoming the DC Regional Champions! Extra thanks to 357 for giving us some aluminum stock so we could repair our bridge dropping arm. Also want to give credit to the student on 2914 (sorry I never got your name!) who was able to, in 6 minutes, tear down one drive wheel and replace a bent axle - amazing job under those stressful conditions!

Our scouting meeting on Friday night discussed what would be a "perfect" team - and we ended up being just that - everyone did their job perfectly. As the drive team coach, I don't remember being on an alliance that worked as well together as we did.

We are also very happy to be able to give a DC area team their first Regional win! Congrats!

Congratulations to FIRST Teams 1218, 836, and 141. We watched you play through the qualifications and eliminations, and knew we had a hard fight ahead of us.

Congratulations also to FIRST Team 461 for winning Chairman's. And a HUGE thanks to them for the Festo pneumatic valve!

We'd love to see you at Nationals - we've got to do some serious fundraising, in a short time (not to mention build a crate! ).

Thanks again!
