225's 20-point auto might be the thing that gets them to the #1 seed. At SCH (80 auto points) and at UD (160 auto points), their auto totals were more-than-double the next-highest total. (By my count, 225 has 5 district/regional blue banners in the past 3 years, but ousted in the semis twice at MAR champs.) With such a unique landfill-oriented machine, this could be their year.

There are some strong robots hidden way down in the MAR rankings, though. 316 (18th), 1811 (29th), 5420 (44th), 5404 (49th), 103 (53rd), and 193 (54th) are all better than their rankings and could be contributing to high elimination scores at Lehigh.

I have no doubt 225 will be seeded #1. Their auton seals the deal.

Thanks for the mention. We didn't perform as well as we would have liked at Seneca but did much better at UD. We're making a few changes tomorrow that should allow us make our stacks faster and taller. It should be a fun weekend.
