Re: [ECDU]: Season in Review

I guess ill do mine now.

Well at NJ-we did great for the shape our robot was in-we ended up 5-3-but about 4 rounds are arm sheared its gears-making it impossible for us to hang. We still ended up seeding 8th and going up against 237-303-56 in the QF. We were with 103 365. We won the first match with 103, then our partners lost the 2nd. Then in the third-it was a very tight match-if we got the hang, we wouldve won, but as we went to hang-the arm sheared-and we lost to the eventual NJ champs.
At annapolis-we did really great, we had fixed our arm and went 6-1 over the weekend-seeding 4th. We ended up picking 1403 and 007. We had some problems in the finals again, getting stuck on a platform that was crooked and popping a tread. And there definitely was some screaming going on after that round, everyone was mad, b/c appearantly something was done to the robot in the pits that the drive team was not aware of, or something like that, i dont remember the exacts-maybe bharat can clear that up.
Nats-huge disappointment. We went 3-4 but all in all we had great matches. We ended up tying the most QP in the division even after losing 4 times. We thought we had a shot at getting picked, but we did not, so many people were upset, it just was a tough weekend.

Offseason-we broke at PARC-ended up seeding 4th/5th-picked 1403 and 11-us and 11 couldnt hang-our major goals-and 1403 had some probs throughtout the day. Lost to 222(finalists).
First Frenzy-Insane day-we broke again-but ended up winning the competition with 1089 and 19-we beat 1403 after alligning with em twice.

AT Nj-we Won Leadership in Control and at Ches we won Engineering Inspiration, so not a bad start for a rookie drive team.
