From my knowledge, I can understand where that point is coming from. This year as most people know 188 was out of commission due to the Ontario teacher strike. However, their mentors were so passionate about the program that they reached out to other teams and joined them for a year to not only help the other teams but to also help them grow as mentors. You can evidently see this on two of this years championship teams. I know personally of many mentors from 188 who joined teams 1241 and 610 this year in their championship run. I can confidently say that I am sure they were one of the biggest impacts on their respective teams this year.
Just as 1114/2056 has motivated other teams to step their game up, 188 is equally as responsible. They were the team that started it all, they have grown as a community not only in their school but nationally too. I cant wait to see how strong they come back next year. They will definitely be a force to be reckoned with. After all they are the Blizzard.
