Hey everyone, Its about 5:20pm on Saturday, March 12 and I just returned home from the UTC Regional Competition in Hartford, Connecticut. Each year that I participate in FIRST the game is intense and the team spirit is through the roof! One of the best experiences I have had in the past years has been with team 195; The Cyber Knights from Southington, Connecticut. Usually I just help them out with scouting and produce a CD with all the Robots attending the competition but this year, I actually switched between volunteering and scouting.

It was actually my first time on stage and seeing what it is was like from the other side of the fence. That had to be the best of what I have seen in my entire FIRST Robotics career.

Second was of course being with Team 195. I don't know if anyone saw us, but we were the ones that started to congo line. I have never led a congo line before but I think most of you may have seen my dancing wildly in the isles or up the stairs.

Anywho, what are some of your best experiences from the 2005 UTC Competition? There's got to be at least something. I cannot wait for next year. I wish I were going to New Jersey next weekend and I really wish I was able to make it to Atlanta for the national competition but duty calls. Thanks yall for making it another great FIRST Robotics experience.
