I would like to echo Adam's comments by reiterating the reason that 1114 is such a model for the FIRST community, it is because they are simply an amazing group of people. Having a pit a few spots away from SWAT this weekend I got to see how much help and support 1114 gave to these girls (and tried to pitch in when I could). It seemed like for all three days there were as many Simbotics members in SWAT's pit helping them out as SWAT members. Hey they could have brought their robot over to SWAT's pit and worked on it there, it seemed like there were more Simbotics members in SWAT's pit then working on their own bot (all though their bot didn't need as much work).

Kate X2, Michelle, Kayla, and to the rest of the SWAT girls, you had an amazing season this year... winning your first ever regional and winning your first Chairman's award are amazing accomplishments and well deserved. It was alot of fun to work with you girls this year, and I am sure you are going to do really well in Atlanta.
