I agree we must all earn our place, but everyone can use a helping hand at times.
We went to Southington with 14 points so you're in better shape then we were. Make a plan and make it happen. I told our team if we kept playing like we did in Groton we would not make it to Boston. Our plan was simple, break down the points. We were shooting for 52-54 points and we got 59.
1)Win 10 out of 12 Qualifiers 10x2=20 points ---We won 10 for 20 points
2)Be a top captain or top pick 12-14 points ---We were #3 for 14 points
3)Make it to the finals for 20 points --We were finalists 20 points
Then we got a 5 point judged award for our total 59
The students pushed hard all weekend, they scouted better than they ever did and they made a lot of new friends. I look forward to meeting you this weekend. We're easy to spot, just look for the gearhead helmets.

I'm terribly sorry, i thought you were implying that your team was going to throw matches for those eight teams and were encouraging others to do the same, we currently have 22 points fro WPI now that our shooter works and our code is stable we hope to be doing better. we wish to total 70 points so that means our goal is 48 points (a tall order). we would love the strategic advice, our team is small about 3 insanely dedicated kids and a few others. were relying on our friends at 228 and 558 to help us with scouting (we acquired mentors from both teams this season) so were hoping this will be our best event. I'll swing by your pit Saturday and take you up on that strategic insight.
