Re: Team shout outs
Team 4819, Flat Mountain Mechanics.

In 2013, they were the highest rookie seed at both of the districts they went to (Kettering and Troy). Their robot had no shooter, but had a perfect 30 point climber.

We won the Great Lakes Bay Region District with them week 4. They were the main scoring robot on our alliance and were absolutely phenomenal to be partnered with. They had an intake that preformed very well, and also had a great shooter to boot.

I think the issue with this team not being noticed by other teams is their number. Who wants to be with a 2 year old team in eliminations? Who cares about a 2 year old team at all? I know I do. I find it very hard to believe they weren't picked at MSC or on Curie this year. They were ranked 14th at MSC and 22nd on Curie.

They've definitely earned my respect and I think they deserve a shout out.
