Nice long shooter, btw.

A rematch will have to happen sometime in the future. Maybe take a trip to sunny California and participate in the Sacramento Regional! Glad my team could inspire your team to improve themselves. Maybe your new drive base might put ours to shame!
I'm assuming that this is the match you are talking about.

Most of the credit actually goes to 2259. I directed them to push, and in some instances, for our team to push behind them for extra force. The double pushing is actually a derivative of one of my pre-written match strategies called "Caterpillar," where all three robots on the alliance drive bumper to bumper towards a goal as an offensive strategy to prevent defending robots from pushing. The other team would be forced to forego their offensive strategy in order to stop our offensive strategy, since two defense robots still would have a difficult time against three robots in line.
If you look to the left at the alliance station, you can see me going back and forth between alliance stations coaching the other teams. Communication was super crucial for this strategy.
