Re: 2014 Queen City Regional
I was very impressed with the whole 525 team. I completely understand the frustration when one thing after another goes wrong (that was QCR for us last year, until eliminations when our bad mojo rubbed off on 1038) but you handled it well. And you have a really nice robot. Your human player was good a nice young man as well.
I also would like to congratulate the Quadrangles (3494) and the Metrobots (3324). Two nice teams we have played with in the past who had good robots and played well this weekend. The RoboAces (4283) was also impressive with the tweaking of their robot from Crossroads to Queen City.
As for the Bomb Squad, they do have an amazing robot, but it was their driving that really impressed me. There were plenty of times as a ref when I was watching one action on one end of the field and all of a sudden they would appear and slide right through a swarm of robots for a score or some play defense, then zip right back out.
