That is why we had to select two shooters for the alliance. We were just plain lucky to get 1468 as the third choice--thank goodness we had zero turn around time between the last match and selections, other teams passed them by.

Thanks for the kind words Kev. We were hopeful that 1468's capabilities would get noticed. We enjoyed being chosen up with your team along with the PoBots. We were also happy to share our scouting information with you folks as our scouting team was able to get good information all through the regional.
I gotta admit that although we were on the short end of the stick in the finals I can't remember the last time we had as much fun at a regional. It took until Tuesday before I finally got my voice back (my wife seemed happy about the quiet on Sunday and Monday
)
As for Scott358 and the rest of the 358 team: Go Get'em in Atlanta, we're rooting for you!
