We believe it happened to us at Nationals last year! We were 5-1 and paired with a team from a state where their sister school was our opponents. Their sister schools record was one win better than our alliance partner. One of our students said he overheard them talking backstage about our strategy for the match. I refused to believe until they self destructed during the match and single handedly lost it for us. At least five other teams came to our pit after the match and said they felt they threw the match and had never seen them play so bad. I still wanted to believe it didn't happen until alliance time when their sister school as one of the top captains picked them as their first partner. Too many coincidences for me! It really left a sour taste in my mouth as the loss dropped us out of contention. I'm hoping we don't see such behavior this year as it affects the alliance, especially if you're in contention for a captain spot. How is that GP by any measure??
