341... Thank YOU!!
You guys impressed me so much, I don't even know where to start...
-- Your 100% student built bot: wow - very nice work -- even without any of the rest of it, you should be very proud of that achievement
-- Your performance Friday and Saturday: Fourth seed amoungst some pretty stiff Galileo competition; I think that accomplishment speaks for itself. Very nice driving, and awesome coaching.
-- Your scouting: First Rate -- lots of teams (including Buzz) can take some lessons from you on this one -- even though you had never been in the finals since your team's inception, you out- classed most teams with your information gathering and your attention to detail -- Kudos!
-- Your finals stategizing: OK -- I still cannot get over the fact that this was your first trip to the finals -- you handled it like old pros -- great job!
-- Your attitudes: top notch -- it was a pleasure making the journey to Einstein with you. You guys rock!
-- Your Regional Chairman's Win: You guys definately have what it takes -- keep on plugging... IT will be yours soon enough
CONGRATULATIONS on all of the above. You are awesome. Thank you for letting us take the journey with you.
I can tell you now that Buzz and our friends the Ticks went to Nationals with the hopes of one of us seeding high enough to pick the other and form an alliance together -- we figured that together, matched with the right team, we had some pretty good chances -- we just had to find the perfect alliance partner. Well, as fate had it, neither of us had a good Friday, and ended up ranked downstream. Saturday morning we were both slightly bummed about that. But low and behold, out of the clouds Miss Daisy came swooping down and snatched both of us up -- in an unexpected reversal, the perfect alliance partner found us -- I cannot tell you how ecstatic we were that you made our dream come true. Then you led us all the way to Einstein! Way to go!
Thanks again -- I don't think I can say that enough.
Hope to see you guys in the post season! Keep in touch.
Aidan
