Re: Proudest Moment

Being my first and only year on a FIRST Robotics Team, my proudest moments were on day 3 of the Midwest Regional. We went to 2-1 on qualifying matches (we were expecting to lose the third one but pulled it out ) and were the last pick for the finals (8 seed naturally) after being ranked 32nd.
To cap it off, I found out along with a couple other members of our team what a FIRST event is really like. The gracious professionalism is amazing along with the intensity the events have. If only I was not a senior going to a very strict school (see signature), I would be back for so much more. I may have to look into mentoring one of the schools in the new area.
