It must be exciting to finally get to compete (waiting until week 4 to get going), and then have a flurry of three comps in a row!

Good luck!

It certainly is exciting and after going down to Oregon to spectate, we are anxious to get out on the field ourselves.

1318 is certainly looking good this year and we haven't played with them since our regional win in 2009.

It's exciting to see all the great teams we'll get to play with on top of 1318. We have a lot of strong Washington friends in Seattle and Central who we watched play well in Oregon. We also have some really strong out of state travelers in Spokane: 955 (regional winner) and our yet to be seen friends the Taters, 2122.

The floor pickup doesn't double as a hanging mechanism. We do have a hefty 10 point hang, but I don't think we'll be doing a 30 this season. Our robot is a bit scared of heights (or falling from them anyways)

@Everyone: Thanks for the compliments, the kids and mentors did a great job this year during a hard season. It was fun to try and throw a video together and I hope that it will become a tradition. Can't wait for competition!
