[Courtade]

My name is Alex Courtade from team 216, More RoboDawgs. I was actually at this competition and was with Hermon from the moment he unbagged his robot until he packed it up on Saturday. So, to clarify:
#1, his team is not "Eyes High", those were t-shirts one of the RoboDawg moms picked up from the Calgary bookstore so that we would be inspired as well as look like a team.
#2, his name is HermOn, not HermAn. Just wanted to point that out.
#3, I hope I can speak for Hermon in saying that he doesn't need sympathy. Words like "poor rookie team" cannot describe him in the way that I knew him. He would not want to be pitied because he had some rotten luck with teammates.
