For North Carolina:

• 3506 -- Winner of the North Carolina District Championship and the Guilford District. No team has more blue banners this season as of the time of writing.
• 2642 -- Knocked out of the quarterfinals in the North Carolina due to a bad case of Murphy's Law on their alliance, but one of the top teams in the state nonetheless. They finished the qualification matches in North Carolina with a five match winning streak which included captures in their final three matches. Earlier in the season, they won the Wake County District with excellent shooting.
• 1533 -- First pick and eventual winner at the North Carolina District Championship. Struggled with mechanical problems early, but they started working consistently before winning the Campbell District. Triple Strange has been either the alliance captain or the first pick at three events.
• 4561 -- Likely the most consistent shooter in North Carolina. TerrorBytes did not come out of the gate shooting from the defenses, but their robot has improved immensely over the last few weeks.
• 5518 -- Not the flashiest robot, but Techno Wolves have a great grip on strategy and were able to pull off some huge upsets on their way to reaching the NC District Championship finals.

There are several great teams from North Carolina which did not qualify for Championships, but I thought it would be more useful to only include those teams which well be competing in St. Louis.
