It looked like a sure win for red.
Just as predicted, red won the first match. But on the second match, team 60 coded their robot to go play defence. It went in a bee line towards the red alliances prefered shooting area and managed to knock one robot sideways and block the other robot's shots at the same time! Meanwhile, a corner scorer (team 1006) scored ten points for blue, and they won the autonomous and managed to use some spectacuar defence to win the second match.
The same thing happened in the third match, blue won autonomous and played the best defence that I had seen at the regonal. At the very end, blue managed to get all three robots on the alliance platform and the crowd went nuts.

Funny thing was that auton was for lining up to shoot into the center goal.
Az was a very competitive regional this year, all of our matches were VERY close, and I am still stunned that we managed to get the upper hand on the high rollers alliance.
