Thank you both for your kind words. We were disappointed to miss out but we were very pleased that our close neighbors (2168) were drafted and carried local pride into the Newton semi-finals.

Thank you allies, for your strong support in our Regional and World Championship matches. Thank you opponents, for making the victories accomplishments worth savoring.

The 1885 Robocats purple team will be back next year working harder, making more friends, and mixing it up on the fields again. Just look for the purple shirts and come chat us up. We think you will like what you see.

Thanks again, Chris & GRaduns and everyone who gave us similar encouragement offline.
