If you're asking yourself "what could we have done better to win?", then you've won something more than a mere game. If your answer is: we did the best we could and it didn't work out; maybe it was just your opponent's day to win. If you know that there are things you can do to improve, you win even more when you do them.

Team 1717 has what all good FIRST teams have: high goals, desire to achieve them and persistence. Congratulations on an outstanding year and a really great robot. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of it later this year...
Thanks David. We're hoping to make it to some off-season events and use our robot again. And we'll certainly be back in years to come (well, I'm graduating, but team 1717 will continue to rise).
