Though I don't agree with the 2Champs split, the fact they're keeping it singular means they're not treating it lightly.

It's not the solution many people want, but in this case, it's better than having 2 Woodie Flowers (at least to me.)

[In Reference to the Salt]
The core of the problem (imho) is the whole 2Champs brought a logistical nightmare for teams and FIRST itself. To coordinate two events of similar scale halfway across the country (vertically, at least) is an impressive feat, and hopefully the 2017 staff will be able to coordinate it as well as this and previous years.

FIRST made these changes because they see a bright future for all of the F** competitions, and we all have to trust in them, whether we like it or not, that they know what they're doing.
