Performed poorly, for their standards, at state due to some minor shooting issues and poor qualification matchups but still 1st pick for 7th seed alliance.
2) 4103 (Roborioles): Poor performance last year but really came through this year becoming the 2nd seed alliance captains at Walker Warren and State championships, and finally won their first event at state, taking them to Championships.
3) 5188 (Classified Robotics): Although a somewhat poor performance this year (didn't qualify for state), they were a dominant powerhouse team last year, going to Championships due to the district system.
4) 5403 (Aluminosity): Even though they usually aren't considered a powerhouse, they have performed decently well for a 2nd year team both this year and last.
5) Tie between 5484 (Memento Vitam), 4926 (GalacTech) 5010 (Tiger Dynasty), and others
Honorable Mentions:
3947 (Last Crusaders): Not exactly up and coming as they have a few years of experience in them
3494 (Quadrangles): Again, not exactly up and coming but they were pretty good last year, not so well this year due to some drive train issues

I think you left out 5402 somewhere in there. Even though we did not do as well this year due to losing two very good mentors. We were finalist 3 times last year(Kokomo, Purdue, and state) and only rookie team in the world to make it to champs on merit and not rookie all-star. Even if we would not have had our 10 rookie points we still would have made it to champs.
