Amidst all the other incredible things that happened at GTRE, Team 610 had a few personal victories.
We had a chance to début our now infamous 20-point end game manoeuvre.
Yes, we do hang and shoot into the high goal at the same time.
Yes, we did make the shot.
This photo was from Q55 where our robot also scored 9 goals. It was our best match, and hopefully video of it will be up shortly. I know many will ask about defence, and I'll let the video speak for itself!
Despite only making it to the semi-finals, we had the opportunity to work with two phenomenal teams in 2013 and 5596. 2013 has an elite full-range courtyard shooter and will be a force to reckon with all year. They ranked 3rd (above 118, but behind 2056 and 1241) at what might have been the hardest regional in FRC history with 5 former world champions competing plus another pretty good team that holds the longest regional winning streak at 23. Apt, because 2013 might have been shooting the hardest shots in FRC history. 5596 is an up-and-coming 2nd year team from Toronto. They had a ton of heart and determination, and we leaned on them heavily to play ball-starvation strategies in the elimination rounds. I think they'll be a team to look out for in the not-too-distant future.
Scorpion will make another appearance at Waterloo, and will be hoping qualify for World Champs with an even better robot and effort.
