Team 71 "SIDEWAYS"
Hi,
In answer to your questions. I am the coach of the Cosmos team 123 from Hamtramk High, I was involved in the design, fabrication and coaching for this team, we were selected by team 107, and 71, -"The Beast" to be their alliance for the finals and they told us straight up that they chose us because "Teams" had figured if they didn't grab three goals initially they could be turned sideways and thus disrupt their play. We had displayed great torque and they hoped we could keep them straight once the other teams started to push them. Unfortunately they failed to latch onto but 2 goals the whole four matches we were in. We were able to keep them straight during both of the 2 matches we were in, however the last one we lost because the other team used a go home bot - Team 66's tethered bot along with 2 balls in the one goal they had gave them the win. So I guess what I'm trying to say is if Team 71 fixes that 3rd goal grabber you guys better watch out... GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL in FL. See ya down there next year... COACH - JJ
