Congrats also to 987, 64, and 1527, as well as to the finalists 1425, 359, and 991. High rollers and Dukes: How'd you guys end up on opposite sides of the field in finals so soon after being partners in the AZ finals?

The Dukes were ranked 19th going into alliance selection (the sad part was that we were running better than we ever have, we just had some alliances that didn't work out). We were the third pick of the first seed alliance (987 was second). I would have loved to played with 987 again, but the alliance we ended up on was solid and it was a thrill to play with 1452 and 359.

987 deserved that win. I had no problem losing to them. They had a great robot and a great team and I hope they dominate at nationals along with 359 and 1452.
