Hello again
As the Friday matches of the UTC regional came to a close, wow were there surprises, and then again there was the usual. Here's the rundown of what happened today:
- 230. For anyone who watched the UTC Scrimmage or the practice rounds yesterday, 230 seemed like they would dominate the field with their 3-tetra-at-once loading mechanism. But somehow, as the results below show, 230 ended up with surprisingly near the bottom of the list.
- 228. Before today, no one expected us to be a awesome robot. But as the results show, we stayed in the top 5 for the entire day, with Gus being the number 1 seed for most of the morning. We were also in the highest scoring match of the day (as far as I know) along with teams 178 and 271, for a score of 87 points. (That was an exciting match, as I was the arm driver
)
- 173. As usual, RAGE has once again proven themselves a powerhouse team.
- 178. A good, solid robot, especially since it can hold upwards of 5 tetras on it.
- 20. The only team to go undefeated today.
There were several high scores today. RAGE's alliance had 75 points in one match and 1071/271/? had 80 points in another (90 before the penalty). And here's the ranking (as of 6 PM Friday):
