I had to step out of the event for most of elims so unfortunately I missed them. But I wanted to pass along the message and congratulate you guys on a great performance at the event this weekend!!
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next

Again, I will echo my praise of 3026 and their mentors. I am so disappointed that they will not be moving on. You will not meet a better group of students (and mentors) dedicated to building an incredible machine and the team is always up for a challenge. After day 1 at the North Star Regional, my co-coach came over and stated "Holy ****, Delano has the best robot in this tournament - that machine is a beast". I still believe she was right (no knock to the other great robots), but Orange Crush has one of the best in the state.
4607 is so proud to call 3026 partners. There are so many great teams and great stories in MN FIRST - but this team truly has a great story and will continue their rise as a powerhouse team in Minnesota. Congrats to Todd and his team!
