I am the announcer, and I saw about 60 matches up close today with the best and most gracious teams in the nation Aiming High. The defense has been strategic, and I recall, there was only 1 high-hit called all day despite some matches ending with as many as four robots tipped over. The ramps have been quite a challenge.

It is a pleasure to see such camaraderie in the heat of competition. I am looking forward to a great Saturday.
