For all our qualification alliance partners, thank you! We had absolutely zero problems working out strategy to maximize the alliance score and that was a huge part of our ranking. It was a privilege to work with so many great teams.

We were out at the SF but we had a great time.
That's as high as we have ever been.
Thanks 16, 85 and 203. It was one helluva ride. |
Thank you to 16, 1501, and 203 for joining us in the playoffs. I never would have guessed we would have been so lucky to work with such amazing teams. All of you were class acts and were nothing short but amazing to work with. We were all blown away that 16, 1501, and 203 were left on the board.
16 - You really showed the veteran experience that we needed in the playoffs, I appreciated all the strategy discussions we had as we planned field maneuvers around each other on the field. Even when things didn't go to plan, you were able to re route and execute very quickly.
1501 - We knew you guys could go stack crazy, but you took it to another level by cranking out three stacks a few times. Your robot performed magnificently, and your team was a pleasure to work with. I am so very glad to have worked with you.
203 - With how your qualifying went, your robot deserved to be playing Saturday morning, but you handled it with class. I know we struggled whether our not to sit 85 out and let you guys stack because you were so good at it! It was also a struggle to let you guys put on a spare can grabber because we knew you had to take parts off such a great working robot. It wasn't the original plan to have your team work on that, we picked you because of your stacking ability, but your team never batted an eye and got to work on it. We really appreciate all you went through for the alliance.
Congrats to 1325, 3339, 20, and 1711! It was fun to watch all the amazing teams form their alliances. With such a deep Carson field, I know we struggled with what strategy to take in the playoffs, it was fun to see how other teams approached it.
