All I can say is, Wow!
By my count, the Cheesy Poofs have won 13 of the 17 FRC regional competitions that they have entered. By any standard, that is an absolutely amazing record! No one else even comes close. There are two records in FIRST that may never be broken - the mightly Team Hamond's unbelievable run of four National Championships, and the Cheesy Poofs incredible record of winning 76% of the regional competitions they entered over a nine-year period. Congratulations to Team 254 for continuing to be a class act, and congratulations to whoever actually is winning the Silicon Valley Regional (since the FIRST web site hasn't been updated in a while, and the webcast appears to be stuck, I can't tell what is going on with the competition right now).
