Re: UTC: The perfect combination of old school mixed with the new
I have to second Andy's comments and add a few because this years UTC Regional was just that good. The bleacher/field setup had a definite old school competition. The play was top-notch this is where the best teams come to play and if you win this regional it means something. Also because of the vast amounts of open space this event definitely had a playful vibe teams were milling about, playing, meeting one another and just generally chillin' this is something that has been missing from the Meadows for a long time and was welcome. I was also impressed by the number of different events going on at this regional FRC, VEX, FLL they had it all. Not sure if this has been mentioned in other posts but in future years there will be a brand new science Museum next door with a permanent FIRST exhibit very cool.

Thanks for everyone involved with this regional for making it an awesome event. I look forward to many more.

Justin
