Wouldn't the tradition of returning winners also be satisfied if 1723 won again?
Hats off to the Finalists, 1730, 1806, and 1777. You had some amazing robots, and I fully expected to take home red ribbons instead of blue. I'm very glad all Finalists will be making the trip to St. Louis; you deserve it. All six teams were "Kaufmann babies" that started in 2006. It's gratifying to see how far we've come. (It took some of us longer than others...)
See you in St. Looey!
