Re: What teams have improved the most in the shortest amount of time?
3620 is the one that came to mind as I read this post. In 2013, they didn't even make it to MSC, but in 2014, they exploded. They won their home district, they went to Worlds, and became a powerhouse in community outreach. They're literally amazing and I give props to them. I see the Chairmans Award in their future, and I'm blessed to get to work with them on a regular basis.

If you get the time to speak to any of the students or mentors, do it. They're all such amazing folks, and they have amazing stories.

This year I was the drive coach for 2959 and the biggest support I got was from 3620's mentor, Doug. As someone who's been on the floor, he offered me advice, support, and guidance. I didn't approach him, he approached me. They're an AMAZING team.
