Thanks Mike. I think what you are saying it you'd rather go into the afternoon with somebody you know. I recall that 1102 and 845 go back as far as the pre-ship scrimmage this year. We helped each other with repairs in Greer. I thought the all SC alliance was a nice touch in Columbia. Thanks for the opportunity.
As for the winners, I'll bet 1051 is still floating on air. A real Cinderella story. 1466 and 179 did great by picking them!
One other note. I think all 3 teams in the finalist alliance were already going to the championship. 1466 and 1051 got a trip because of their win. 179 won FLA and was already going. Now we have 2 more teams (and friends) at the Championships.
