I'll agree with this- Benji was amazing!

Case in point- it was a match early into the seeding rounds, I forgot the round number. A robot grabbed a tetra and ended up falling out of bounds. Their arm resting on the floor on the outside of the field. But they weren't disabled so the team righted the robot by applying force to the floor on the outside of the field with their arm. Once they were back up and driving to the loading zone you could hear gasps from the crowd. Benji was on the opposite side of the field as the arena control system. He risked life and limb by jumping over the wall and through the field to get to the arena controllers. By that point the illegal robot was just about to cap a tetra on a goal when they were disabled. Because of Benji's heroics that match avoided a serious reffing blunder. Awesome job
