It seems like many of the teams chosen have strong track records, indicated by chairman's awards, EI, Rookie inspiration, and/or Rookie all star awards. If I was FIRST, I'd choose teams with strong track records, but at the same time, saying "We’re grateful for your interest and commitment to FIRST, and we hope that you don’t infer this to be a reflection on your team’s strength." may not be entirely truthful. However, being rejected this time around for the beta test motivates me to do better this upcoming year on the field and off the field. Congrats to all of the teams selected to participate in the beta test, and good luck!
