I'm not familiar with the details of that situation, so I'm afraid I can't comment on any similarities or differences.
Thanks to everyone on Carver for a great competition, and congratulations to the new World Champions! I'm still trying to process 330s double self-right from the semis, let alone what was the most competitive set of finals matches that happened all season.
I'd also like to send a special thanks to our alliance partners:
5924, you folks were a great late pick. Being called upon in such a high pressure situation can't have been easy, but you did everything you could to give us a chance to win, and I know we wish you nothing but the best in the future.
20, being able to snag such a high-caliber team so late in the draft was something that I thought would really give us a fighting chance against anyone, even some very powerful alliances at 1 and 2. Fingers crossed that next time we get to play together goes a bit more smoothly.
1114, I know I personally (and I'm sure just about everyone in FRC would agree) have been wanting to play with you for practically my entire FIRST career. Our alliance had tremendous potential that unfortunately just wasn't quite fully unleashed. Now I can't wait for the next chance we get, and hopefully that chance is sooner rather than later.
Last, and certainly not least, thanks to all of the Carver volunteers. Aside from the aforementioned, for lack of a better term, controversy (which again was handled with a great amount of professionalism and effort to make the right call), the refs, FTAs, and the rest of the crew couldn't have been better.
Until next year, St. Louis. Or maybe Houston? But we all know probably STL because geography.
