Also thanks/congratulations to 51, 3414, and 3604 for the fight you guys gave us in the finals. You definitely had us a little scared after the 2nd match.
Congratulations to 548 on their Chairman's Award win and to 2834 for winning Engineering Inspiration.
Lastly, there have been many people in the FIRST community who have told me or members of our team that they were pulling for us to finally win an event...I want to thank all of you for the support. It was nice to know that someone was noticing our accomplishments and wanted us to get rewarded for it.
Now we begin preparations for Grand Blanc, but first I think I need a day to sleep and bask in the glow of being an event champion.  |
Congratulations teams 33, 1718 and 4779 on a well deserved win!!!! It was an honor and a blast to compete against such a great alliance (not to mention the other alliances in the semi and quarter finals). It was also humbling and an honor to be selected by our alliance partners team 51 and 3414 and participating all the way through the finals! This was only our team's third season with FRC and only my first as coach - to say the least this was very exciting and rewarding competition for our entire team. I would like to say 'Thanks' to all of those who offered their words of support and help during the competition - it's one of the things I truly believe makes FRC a great experience for all those involved. Good Luck at States!
