Re: Indiana Teams

I have to chime in on this one!

The TechnoKat repair moment was an awesome sight to see! I was the announcer at GLR and had a close up view of the action. I came over to the TK alliance to tell them they had a few minutes left in their time out before they had to declare who was playing in the next match. I really thought they were going to get that arm fixed in time!

Here is the scene:

Andy and a student high in the air fixing the gripper mechanical issues. The student was sitting on another student's shoulders while turning wrenches .. it was incredible. In between Andy and the other student was the electrical student crimping on electrical connectors above his head. There were various other students doing many different things and I actually stopped what I was doing to observe this beautiful vision of FIRST in action. It is a moment I will NEVER forget.
