Buzz is great!

We share the same basic concept, using rollers to move the balls up into a hopper and then latch a goal and dump.

Where the the 'bots differ is that they can handle a goal _much_ better then 95 can. 175 leans more on the power side and 95 on speed. This changed our strategys quite a bit. Theirs was to grab a goal of thier own and control it, running around picking up balls dumping them as needed. I only saw a few matchs they played in, but I think they won all of them.

We only played against 175 once, at UTC. In the end we won, but I think that was because thier partner had broken down and even then it was close (4 or 5 balls). In anycase, I think 175 and 95 are about equal ball handlers. What ever one lacks it makes up for in some other way.
