What a crazy awesome weekend!
The Northeastern District event was top notch and a huge thank you to all of the volunteers who made this event happen! Not only was the event top tier so was the field crew and referee staff. We never had to wait for a ball or pedestal all weekend and all calls seemed fair and reasonable! Kudos to everyone involved to put on the event including the Volunteer of the Year recipient Brandon Holley!
3467 was extremely happy to be invited by team 125 the Nutrons to join the #1 alliance! It was a nice change up considering we've played on opposite sides of the field a lot in the past few years. You guys have an amazing robot and pit crew working through every little issue that came up over the weekend! It was great to see you guys lit up the high goal in the elimination matches!
Team 5000 you were an amazing robot to round off our alliance with your solid defense but more importantly your inbounding was phenomenal and pivotal to our alliance's success in the finals! You guys were quick, consistent, and always ready to dart back to get the next ball started! It was a pleasure working with you and we hope we can play again with you and the Nutrons in Boston!
A big congratulations to the finalist alliance of 69, 2877, & 3499 for their performance in the elimination matches. Finals match 1 was intense, strategic, and well played! The score kept going back and forth after each triple assist cycle on both sides of the field. Putting up 191 points in the finals match with no penalties is something to be very proud of! You all have three amazing robot that know how to play the game. I hope we get to see more of your robots this season!
To 1058 The PVC Pirates, we are so excited to see you guys take home your second Chairmans award in three years! I've said it before but you have been such a role model for our team since we started and never hesitate to help us out if we were in need! You guys have an amazing team and even more so an amazing robot! So glad you guys have the opportunity to show it off in Boston as you are probably one of the most underrated teams in New England at the moment!
Also thanks to everyone who helped us out this weekend with part requests! We seem to have forgotten who gave us a Banebots RS550 motor yesterday before the alliance selections and we would like to replace it.

Overall it was a fantastic event and we can't wait to come back next year!
