I'd like to congratulate the third seeded alliance on some hard fought final matches. 3419, 578, and 3017 made a close set of final matches, at the end of the matches, our alliance wasn't sure who won the match, and both matches were within 10 points, easily being able to go the other way. Good luck to 578, and 3419 at your next events. Congrats to 3419 on also making it to Championships with a wild card spot.

I would also like to thank our alliance members, 694, and 5016 were both amazing teams to work with. Both teams were great when it came to working on match strategies and planning what to do. We couldn't ask for more from our alliance partner, you really complimented our robot and fulfilled the roles we asked you to. Congrats to 694 on winning Engineering Inspiration as well. Good luck to both teams at your next competition.

Lastly I would like to give a shout out to the #1 seeded for some close fought semis, and really pushing our bot to the limit.
This is the third year a team I was apart of had to go against the Robotigers in eliminations. They always know how to put up a fight. Good luck to you guys at Long Island.

You guys did great. It was shame we went out the way we did but, I was still very happy with how we did. Look forward to seeing your team again in the future and maybe next time we will have a match or two together.
