Re: Lowest Number

Team numbers were permanently assigned in 1998, as I recall, and rookies in the 1999 season were numbered sequentially based on the order of their registration. That formula has varied a bit since then, but that's largely how it's been worked since.

The oldest teams in FIRST include 45, 126, 190, and 191. There may be more that are still left, but those are the folks that stick out in my mind. 250 was in it from the beginning as well, but they recently split into two teams, I believe, and only one of those teams represents the original school -- team 20, perhaps.

The lowest assigned numbers are 1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 16, I think.
