Re: What are your victories?
This year was a huge year for our team. After being a honestly terrible team for the past few years we decided something needed to change.
(I'm disregarding achievements pre-2007 as the leadership and team is entirely different)
This year for the first time ever we:
-Spent our whole off season training
-Made a sponsorship package
-Had team hoodies printed
-Created a team website
-Acted as a team
-Conquered our team's politics
-Got sponsors
-Got mentors
-Setup our own room in the school
-Designed the robot entirely in CAD
-Built a practice robot
-Every member knew the rules (seriously, even our drive team didn't know the rules in the past)
-Strategically designed our robot
-Built a functioning robot
-Spent our march break practicing our driving in a church basment
-Competitive in competition
-Scouted
-Scored points
-Got to work with 254 & 2056 (Holy cow, they are just as amazing off the field as they are on the field)
-Went from last place in 2013 to first place at the Waterloo regional
-Set the current high score (350 no fouls)
-"Best defense in aerial assist"-Karthik
-Built a sustainable foundation for future success
We still have a long way to go but I'm very very proud of our team's accomplishments this year and I hope our team is on the path to continuous improvement. We can't wait to compete in St.Louis.
