Re: 2014 - Dallas Regional

What an amazing weekend! We had a great time even if our robot had a few issues. The highlight of Friday was seeing my friend Allen Gregory get his well-deserved Woody Flowers Finalist Award. He has done so much to help teams in the Houston area and never ceases to amaze me with how much he knows.

Congratulations to 148, 359, and 457 for winning the Dallas Regional. I think we all knew we had our work cut out for us if any alliance was going to stop them from winning. They made 200 points look easy.

I am so happy our students were recognized for their efforts to support STEM education and FIRST Robotics. They worked very hard to put together a good Chairman's Award presentation. Thank you to all the people that helped them, including Celeste Brooks (formerly with Team 2936) and Paul Johnson (with Team 1429).
