The teams that ended up as champions were 33, 68, and 818.
A HUGE thanks goes to Truck Town Thunder, Team 68, and the Killer Bees, Team 33. Even though we had been doing terribly during the first half of the day (21st out of 25...ouch), you still saw something in our robot. We definitely weren't expecting to be chosen by the #1 seed. I'm proud to say that we didn't let you down - all of the elimination matches we played in were won by our alliance. Our team won the All-Star Rookie award three times in 2002 (two regionals and Nationals), but we never fared very well in our competitions. Thanks for giving us the chance to finally succeed. And to Team 33: I hope this makes up for West Michigan.
Thanks to all of the teams that participated for making the day's matches exciting and memorable. The competition was definitely a lot of fun, and every team who competed did a great job. Almost everyone that I saw at the event was living the ideals of FIRST, Gracious Professionalism in particular. It was great to see everyone helping each other - I can think of a few teams that might not have been able to finish the competition without the assistance of others. We were somewhat stupid and neglected to bring a battery charger. Because of other teams sharing their batteries and chargers, we were able to finish the day's competition. Thanks to everyone who helped us out and kept our robot running.
See you at Kettering next year.
