1089 is is proud of their thorough (though archaic) scouting system. While normally we would never be one to pick a team that was already chosen, the numbers were a bit difficult to read on the list on the screen, and she wasn't sure if it was 816 or another team with a close number that was the #2 seed, so while she felt a little silly, it was because we didn't want to pass up a great opportunity. We were VERY happy with our alliance selections though, and heck, we were the only ones who could keep the #1 alliance under 80 points, let alone beat them a round. Not too shabby.
Thanks to 449 and 1676 for being excellent partners, and congrats to 1676 for winning Chairman's!!! Such a young team winning demonstrates that you truly must exemplify what FIRST deems as outstanding qualities.
Congrats to teams 25, 103, and 381 for winning the event!
Also, a congrats to our rookie neighbors, 2590 (Nemesis) for their numerous awards, including finalists and rookie-all-star!!
