165 was 616's alliance partner in 2004, and we lost by 5pts, or 2 seconds, whichever you like. That was a GREAT year.

The 2004 VCU elimination rounds are, without a doubt, the best at an official FIRST event I have ever witnessed (only IRI 2006 betters it). Between the 4-robots-on-the-bar Quarterfinal match (which was also decided by 5 points), 1236's & 116's tips during the semis (both of which cost us matches), and 33's dramatic trip onto the steps in the final match, those elimination matches absolutely blew me away.
