Re: Week 2 Regionals: Veterans Still Have No Advantage
Note, there have been a healthy share of rookies that have won--note WI, VA, MO, among others.

But, even if a rookie or second-year team has a pretty good robot, they are constantly beat when it comes to strategy and simply operating in this kind of game. The ones that are doing well have been around since either FIRST Frenzy: Raising the Bar or Triple play.

It's basically a control style and being able to coordinate and experience.
