[Mr MOE]

Great teams, great volunteers, and great sponsors make a great event.

Thanks to all the teams who competed, either with battle-worn vets or team members on their first tour of duty. There were some big time hits going on throughout the day.

Thanks to all the volunteers (about 100) who directed traffic, served food, set-up and took down the field, and provided entertainment.

Thanks to NASA (the Mike and Pete show) for the field and their time, Ron Partridge for the emceeing and the blimp, Bill Enslen for the play-by-play, Brandywine Electronics for the A/V, Jake Warren for the end of event video compilation, Salem Community College for the venue, DuPont for the monetary donation, and Success Won't Wait for coordinating the book drive.

Congrats the the following trophy winners:

Champs: 222, 25, 225 (the "2" and "5" alliance)
Finalists: 816, 303, 7
Play of the Day winners: 1218, 222
Put a Tiger in Your Controller Winners: 222
Make a Difference Day Book Drive Winners: 84

We have the full competition video on DVD (thanks to Brandywine Electronics) and will be sending a note out to team contacts with information on how to get a copy.

For those of you heading to the Eruption next weekend, have a blast. The MOE and SAM squads will see you all at Ramp Riot on November 13.

If you have pictures you would like to share from the event, please post them. We would love to see them!
