Really though, Korbin does a fantastic job. Two years ago he spent all day Thursday talking to teams in the pits so he could accurately and effectively talk about them on the field. Each year he also shares personal stories about his experiences with adulthood, and I have seen multiple people be moved to tears by his talks. He is really a great role model and does a great job of representing our event, region, and FIRST in general.

I wholeheartedly second Kinney's backing of Korbin. The guy is just amazing at the job and you can genuinely feel how much he cares about the ideals.
It doesn't hurt that he can do the entire introductions, including the GA going through all of the sponsors for an elimination match (which tend to have a LOT of sponsors) while continuously headstanding.
Speaking of the GA, Don Knight at the same regional is fantastic as well. They both do a huge amount of homework on the teams before ever touching the microphone.
