A big thanks to 1902. We had it all in the bag guys. I'm sorry our arms weren't up for the challenge. Those matches were just coming way too fast to keep them working. The intensity of those matches is almost unreal, at the speed and dynamics of them. George your my buddy, I'm thrilled and honored to have fought that battle with you again. Thanks! We couldn't have come any closer. In hindsight I can think of a dozen things I would have done differently to win it, but there was just no time to get a plan together. I wish they would find a way to give us a breather in the semi's and finals. Like awards in-between matches etc. However I am also really happy with our alliance partners 108. You guys did a great job getting us to the semis. Sorry the banebug bit you... And also big thanks to 386, you guys were a strong partner.
I guess the silver lining is 1251 got to take home the gold. Congratulations guys! also to 1270, thanks for coming all the way from Ohio, I know you're glad you did, you guys improved to an awesome scoring unit from start to finish you get my most improved award. 86 you guys played strong D all day and your ramp was fantastic. You guys deserved the win last year, so now you got what was coming. Congrats to all of you, a great alliance. Those matches came in a blur, but were a great end to the Florida Regional.
I also want to say I really enjoyed seeing everyone. This was one of my best FIRST seasons. I'm real proud of my team, they all did an excellent job in scouting, programming, maintenance, support etc. etc. etc.
I wish you all luck at Las Vegas. If anyone can fit me in a carry-on let me know.
