Re: Alliance Captain versus last pick in Alliance Selection

The rookie team we picked in Montreal as a last robot (Ultime 5528) played a very important role; they got us the last can we needed to score enough points. Of course, they are not one of the best robots at the regional, but guess what? winning worlds doesn't mean either you're one of the 4 best bots worldwide. That's how FIRST works; it's about teamwork.
Winning that regional gave them a chance to experience worlds, and inspired them to win the FedEx challenge to win 15 000 dollars. They even participated in the Tesla High score along with us and Team Tators 2122.

They came to our team BBQ, and I had the chance to speak with them... They couldn't have dreamed of better. They are even more enthusiastic about next season, and that prize will surely help them do better.
