1511 - Rookie All Star
1518
1551 - Judges award
1559 - Highest Rookie Seed and another award... I'll get back to you
1567 - Judges award
1591
1518, 1591 - I can tell you'll be right in the hunt next year.
I am SOOOO proud of all the amazing rookies we had at the Finger Lakes Regional. They ALL stepped up and not only competed with amazing robots, but also fit right in with the t-shirts, mascots, pins and banners.
All year these rookie teams have supported each other, through emails and seminars. I had hoped they were adequately prepared. I had no idea I'd be so blown away.
I hope at some point to be able to share all their amazing stories.

Let's not forget the amazing "Rookie Regional" - FLRC. you guys did a great job, as good as any regional I've been to. The Friday social was top notch, way beyond expectations.
And also, every rookie team that had a veteran team helping them, the veteran teams deserve a lot of credit. We learned so much from ours and wouldn't have made it there without them.
