I was incredibly disappointed when I heard they lost at North Star. After watching their performance first hand at GKC, I figured they would absolutely rock the competition at their 2nd regional.

I'll add that I felt absolutely terrible standing 10 feet from their robot while the sub was put on the field for Finals 1-2 at GKC, but kudos to them for handling that situation so well.
We were the ones to beat them at North Star, and although we were happy that we won, we were disappointed that such a great team was being deprived of a trip to Championships because they clearly deserved to go. They are some great people and when our cRIO broke during semis they tried to call a time out for us because we had already used ours. They weren't in that match or anything, they just wanted us to have a fair chance at going on. Also, their alliance partners, 2574, are pretty good as well. Team 2574 did amazing at North Star and they were a great alliance. Both teams were great and their teams are full of some really awesome people. Nationals would be better if both of them were there.
