WOW. That progress is truly great. To answer your question, my team has made a lot of progress. In 2013, we ranked in the middle at WPI , the robot was o.k. , didn't get picked for eliminations, but we won the gracious professional award.
This season we wanted to do things we haven't ( have an auto., have a robot that could do most of the tasks).We went to the Groton district, ranked 18th, the robot was doing great, not picked, but we won the spirit award. Then we made some changes to the robot( added a high goal autonomous, made a new catapult ) and made more changes. We went to the Southington district, ranked 12th, and we picked an alliance for the first time as the 8th alliance captain
. Our alliance only made it to the quarterfinals but it felt so good to finally get to that point.
So to all you guys on teams that don't always get picked a lot, don't worry.One day after a long time of hard work, it will happen and it is going to be the best feeling in the whole world.
