I'm pretty sure that was 2334. It was an amazing moment in a weekend filled with them.

My favorite moment is when 1777 picked us during alliance selection. I still have no idea what Lawrence (our driver and captain) said when he accepted because we were all cheering too loudly. After coming in dead last in Colorado last year and not doing too much better our rookie year, we were all so happy we just about exploded. You and 2560 were great alliance partners, and we were honored to work with you. The elimination matches were a rush. We've never flown so high before.

The judges award later was the icing on an almost perfect weekend. My heart skipped a few beats when I realized who they were talking about. I've never seen our students happier or prouder than they were yesterday.
