We are done and ready for nationals and hoping that at nationals the refs have some more consistency on the G25. Because we do not care how they inforce it just keep in consistent for all.
I would like to appologize on behalf of me and my team for my comments I made in an earlier post. Judges have a thankless job and have to make difficult calls. My intent was to not to talk bad about the refs but to bring to light the G25 vagueness. Both refs of the buckeye and boilermakr regional were exceptional and I was glad they were there to volunteer their time. Again I am sorry if my comments came out negative when all I was trying to do is give a suggestion for Nationals. Good Luck to all teams
