In some matches there were two good hurdlers that were paired with a lap bot, and the lap bot was able to play defense against the other alliance's elite hurdler. The three robots in an alliance are all equally important, because each can bring something different to the team. A third alliance pick can make or brake an alliance. It's comforting thinking that your alliance has a back up hurdler, but in the end if no one brakes that third robot could just be used as a lap bot to decrease the use of the balls.

They beat us in quarter finals in Chicago, and I highly respect them. I hope they do very well in Atlanta, and they don't get damaged like in 2007. (ps. I also hope they like the cookies!
