I would like to make a shout out to 5813 who as a rookie built one of the best robots all weekend. One of the most consist top goal shooters and defense breachers. Not to mention a drive team that acted like they have been around for years in first Great job to your team and best of luck at your next event and I hope we can play against each other again in Hartford.

Another shout out to team 839 Rosie robotics on there first ever regional win. Your team had a great low goal cycler and defense breacher and picked a great alliance. 1768 overcame the early qualification difficulties to become an excellent robot being able to shoot top or low very fast. Finally 175 with the climbing device that came to life in eliminations congratulation to all of you On your win.

Special thanks goes out to 2168 and 2067 for joining our alliance we had a powerful alliance for sure if things went alittle different I believe the outcome could have been different.

Looking forward to playing with many of these team again down the road at either pine tree or district championship
I agree, it was a great event all around. You guys played some great defense against us and it really could have gone either way with the bounce of a boulder.

I have to say that watching the event this year was loads of fun. We had our local newspaper from Vermont come down for a day to watch the event and they were really amazed. I wish I could get more people down to this event, it's inspiring. I hope FIRST realizes that having an event like WPI is a massive draw for my kids. I know it's expensive and requires a lot of resources, but it is something special.

Congrats to Rosie, Buzz, and the Robo chiefs for a well fought win. And a hats off to all the other teams that made the event so entertaining. Thanks to everyone who made this happen!
