The eliminations at SVR 2007 hands down. Not the finals, not the semifinals, but the quarterfinals. This wasn't a 5 match brawl either, and from any other person's point of view, it was nothing remarkable.

But I am alumnus and active mentor of Team 971, Spartan Robotics. This is their home regional, and was their first time back in the eliminations since 2004. This time it was as the 1st pick of #7 alliance, headed by 1700.

And they were facing my other team, Team 190, in the quarterfinals. I have never cheered harder, not even at the 07 Champs, than I did for those 3 matches.

190 is going back to SVR in 08, and I'm hoping this year I can see them both on the same side of the field for the finals.
