I believe we utilize the unbagging windows - the dedicated students and mentors. I wasn't there for it this year; my full time job took priority.

From where our robot ended at the end of build season to IRI, there was not much that changed (we ended up adding a mechanism to try and scale, but this definitely was an afterthought). Our biggest improvement came at the end of our first district event, when we were able to spend time dialing in our shooter.

Then look at it from a mentor's perspective. If I'm not here, the team can't work and I'm letting my team down.
