2. 624 with a 5-7 frisbee auto
3. 457 with a 3 frisbee auto
They started the semis with 70+ pts and still lost against a quick shooter from 4063, 2789 playing defense and allowing 2468 to shoot full court. It was close, but the primarily offensive team was upset.
Also just realized you were at Alamo so you were able to see this occur.

Having the autonomous capability and performing on the field is not the same thing. Nothing is guaranteed. In the last Semi match our Alliance only had 5 discs scored in auto and lost the match by 4 points. We were getting 9-10 auto discs the previous Elim matches. Would have been nice to "start the Semis with 70+ points" but it didn't happen.
2789 gets credit for playing excellent defense and 4063 and 2468 proved they were very capable shooters. They played very well togheter and in the end made it happen on the field.
