As a senior, I can honestly say there was no better way to go out than how we did on Galileo this year. It was a BLAST!
First to 180, 25 and 16. That was an absolutely phenomenal alliance. 16 was an absolute steal, and I don't think anyone else realized their potential for defense. It was so frustrating to be playing with no balls on our side of the field. Great strategy. 180 and 25 were extremely consistent shooters. Amazing alliance. It is also fun being able to say that we beat the world champions in a match.
231 and 1714, it was a pleasure to work with you. The strategies that we played were perfect and the matches were probably some of the most exciting that have hit FIRST in a while. I think there were 3 matches that we won by only 1 point, and one was by a human player shot. Strategy was definitely key to our success. I bet we could have taken it to the next level if we had been able to practice the triple balance before the final match. We were sooooo close.
To the refs, great job all weekend, I had absolutely no complaints about the calls made.
To the queuing staff, sorry it took me so long to understand how it worked haha.
All in all, a great weekend, and I hope to have one more chance to drive that robot at IRI.
