I'd like to thank the Thunderhawks of Team 1038 and the Tigertrons of 222 for being great alliance partners at the Pittsburgh Regional. We gave everyone a great show! We all battled through our share of bumps and bruises during the elims, and I'm proud of the way our drive teams and pit crews responded to the task of keeping those bots running right to the end.
Kudos to those in the stands who cheered so hard for our alliance, including the Robocats of 379, our fellow Delphi team the Circuit Stompers of 378, and our rookie Delphi team, the Lightning Bots of 2010.
Congratulations to the regional winners 123, 337, and 247. Da Bears laid down some truly heavy defense, and 123 and 337 proved to be an efficient hanging tandem.
Special congratulations to Team 2010 on winning the Rookie All-Star award. You punched your ticket to Atlanta! Best of luck in finding the funding to attend.
Thanks to the FTA and the volunteer staff - I didn't think there were as many repeats as I saw in Week 1. They also took special care to accomodate teams who had back to back matches with very short turnarounds. Thanks to everyone there who tried to ensure fairness for all teams in attendance.
Team 48 may actually figure out how to win a regional one day. We've waited 9.25 years; I suppose we can wait a little longer lol.
Look for a special video from Team 1038 highlighting our robot's acrobatics during a practice match on Thursday.
HUZZAH TO DEFENSIVE RAMPBOTS!
