Re: Scouting Matters

I agree 100%. Scouting used to inform match strategy has led us to places higher than our robot alone was capable of taking us in our last two off-season events and now our first Recycle Rush competition, since we started running the data to the pits all day.

The same scouting data has led us to some great picks once we are alliance captains, too.

And we aren't event that good at it! We're still working with paper and pencils and a small team of scouts. Even the minimal amount we can do is extremely useful.
