The Martians have been around awhile, and in that time we have made some friends that have really helped us become who we are today like our pals 503, 469, 2137, 191, and 71. Each of these teams have been very important to our history and our team.

503-You guys always push us to our limits when we play. We love competing with you guys. The friendship that has formed in the past two years between us is something that we love and would never want to lose.

469-Wow, you guys have always been a team we have looked to and admired, for your strong robots and strong members. Seeing you guys everywhere is awesome. Playing with you this year was definitely a highlight.

2137-You guys acomplished so much this year, and you taught us so much. Your passion and drive to just field a robot was something that most teams lose. I was more inspired by their students than any other person place or thing this year. THEY GET FIRST

191-The love our students have for you is something that is really almost creepy. Most of the students from 05 have graduated and moved on, but throwing out the X-Cats X is still a popular trend on our team. One of these years we will be back at FLR and the two of us will get back to our winning ways.

71-We owe a lot of our success to these guys. They picked us in 2004 at Championship, and the rest as they say is history. Whenever we see these guys, we love to play with and against them. They are truly a FIRST FORCE.
