Wow! An amazing weekend from all teams. Indiana has truly proven how competitive it can be. I look forward to seeing the teams compete and represent their state at worlds.

As for the robots, all I can say is "wow!" We've seen some amazing improvement over the last few weeks. It's a shame more teams from Indiana won't be attending champs this year (like 1741!).

Congratulations to the winners of the event: 1024, 4103, and 1529! I really thought those finals matches were going to be much closer than they were. I think we can attribute that to 1529's out-of-the-blue never-seen-before strategies, though! The way they repeatedly rammed 1501 to knock their treads off was something I never would have thought of. Taking out the alliance captain so they can't compete? Amazing!
At first I thought it was just an accident, but then they did it again during the second match, proving they knew just how to win! Good job again guys, I'm sure you're all proud of that victory!

Congratulations to 868 as well for winning Chairman's! Congrats to 135 for winning Engineering Inspiration! And good luck to 6012, who will be the rookie team representing Indiana! And good luck to all the other teams competing at champs! Again, it's a shame more teams couldn't have gone. I'm sure 234 will be missed this year!

Phenomenal job, Indiana.
