96 (you knew it was coming) and...
Okay,
All Time:
----------
Well the best finals I've ever seen were for me the 1996 New England Regional. For a couple of reasons. One my team was in them. Two, matches were decided by INCHES!!!! I kid you no refs were using laser pointers and tape measures to score matches thats how close some of these things were. It was just a great finals. Nashua HS and Lockheed Sanders were an aswsome opponent and got us in the end...by inches.
Other - BattleCry (1) 2000:
----------------------------------
These finals were probably some of the roughest matches I've ever seen. Looking back on 2000 I think it was a great year. Socring was pretty easy to deal with. 2on2 kept the excitement in it. But BattleCry in 2000....wow...just wow. I remember sitting there watching all 4 teams on the field booking it for the ramp and that bar...there were matches were all four teams were hanging on teh bar...and your jaw just dropped wide open. Not to mention there were robot's flying, falling, tipping, etc. I think that the BattleCry 1 finals were definetly amoung the most intense FIRST battles I've ever witnessed.
This Year:
------------
This year I would have to say that the finals in NJ were probably my favorite. It came down to all _6_ mattches. Finally at the end it was Still Tied!!! The tie breaker used was Average Score throughout the finals. Those around me explained that the loosing team had essentially lost by a single black ball. Had the managed to put an extra one in the last round they would have one or @ least had the highest average score or something to that effect. So those were the best matches I saw from the 2001 season.
