Does anyone hear that? I think it's the sound of Midwest teams pwning
actually, 7th, but I won't fault you for that. I will fault you for omitting that you lost in the quarterfinals. In fact, both midwestern teams lost in the quarters.

Lets summarize this. #1 seed and lost in the semis this year. Last year #7 seed, chosen 1st, lost in quarterfinals. Didn't win any technical awards either year. Do you know what I call a team that does well in the seeding rounds, but loses early in the finals (and doesn't have any technical awards)? LUCKY.

Meanwhile, team 980 seeded 4th and 2nd, and got to the semifinals each time. 330 seeded lower, but was finalist and won.

So, you did well, but certainly didn't "pwn" anyone.
