[1625Brennan]

On Carson we were part of the 6th alliance, we were told that the only people allowed on the field were the drivers and media, one of our students managed to acquire a media pass from a knocked out team, so he was able to see the matches, although the others walked to the robot exit/que line. The pit crew issue was not the only problem we encountered as part of the 6th alliance. Our opponents had a distinct advantage as they could see the robots we were bringing well before the match would begin where as we must wait to see them loaded on the field. This allowed them to select the bots they played with be it a defensive or offensive, depending on the ones we had brought. When we asked the refs if they could do anything they said no, as we had expected.
