In CA (or pretty much anywhere): 1678, hands down. They went from an OK team (rank 30 in SAC 2009, 11 at SAC 2010) to winning regionals and Championship quarterfinalists in 2011 and 2012 (winner SAC and Curie QF both years), to winning SAC, Curie, and appearing on Einstein (all as an alliance captain) for their first year in 2013. This started an Einstein appearance streak that stands to this day, 3 seasons later. In 2014, they won IE and SAC, were finalists at SVR, and were alliance captains on Newton, going all the way to Einstein finals. We know what happened last year: wins at CVR, SAC, and SVR, captain of the winning alliance on Newton, and winning the FIRST championship. This year was no different in terms of incredible performance, with a record of 59-4-2. That encompassed regional wins at CVR, SAC, SVR, winning Hopper, and Einstein semifinalists. They are truly on top of the FRC world. The most amazing part is they are incredibly open and want to help as many teams as they can achieve the levels of success they can. I encourage anyone reading this to ask them about how they do what they do, I guarantee they would love to tell you.
