: I'm glad were so well-known but almost every member of the team is a rookie this year. The team moved from Broadway to Bellarmine this year.

: Of course thats no excuse for not doing well.

I think this year teams that co-operate and practice
before the competition will do better in the long run than teams that stay aloof. The perfect robot can't
win by itself.

I think this year's compettion will be similar to last year's in that getting into the finals and winning the finals will be very different. To get in you need to be versatile, and to win you need to have four specialists. Sounds a lot like how we won last year!

This year's contest will be like "Survivor" - alliances made prior to the competition may ultimately dictate the outcome.

Now if we could only decide what to make our robot versatile about - we'd have a chance.
