Well, team 95 had a blast at the NJ regionals! We got the Delphi Technology Award and 2nd place. All by a team that qualified 29th out of 40! We were in the lower half, yet our robot was the key player (sorry 303) in the eliminations! I really don't see any co-opertion in this game. It's all about the elimination round. Hope to see most of you in Fl. (Delphi...we'll be back! hehehe) It was also a great thing to see our team with no big sponsers and have just enough money to get to Fl, beat a team with tons of dough, great engineers, and a wonderful robot. hahaha (hey, we can gloat, can't we?)
Good luck to you all!

P.S. oh, yea, our robot (the one with the green bug on the side...) is called Gracehopper (after the navy woman who helped create one of the first programing languages, also coined the term 'computer bug') not Grasshopper as was anounced when we got 2nd place and our Technology Award... Hope we can clear this up by Fl!
