I see nothing wrong with 3 hurdlers. You just need to designate 2 of the robots as the "primary hurdlers". If one of those two misses picking up a ball, the third robot could pick it up and hurdle it. I think it would be perfect with three fast hurdlers, because if they thaught it would be hard to get to the ball, they could just pass it up and let the other teammate take it.
Here is my updated alliances:
1114, another great hurdler, 1024
I think 1024 could fill that 3rd hurdler position well if they had 2 other great hurdlers with them. They can knock the ball off the overpass extremely well, and can hurdle better than most, however they are not the best I have seen. Not taking anything away from their hurdler, I just think others can do better, and that the speed of the robot could fit the speedster/backup hurdler role perfectly. They are also a good group to work with. I got to work with them in a match once, and it was a great time. They definately deserved to win three regionals, great job!
