As the person who threw that shot, I'd like to think there was SOME skill involved. But it was
mostly luck. The coaching (thanks Brad) was exceptional. We knew that to beat the clarkson
score all we had to do was balance 9 balls in under a minute. When the robot pulled away we
counted 8 in th basket. So we started shooting. Our LAST ball happened to make it in. It would
have been nicer if this was a final, and not a semi.

We were part of a GREAT alliance, and I'd like ot thank all our partners, especially WPI 190 for
giving us the chance to be their double-balancer.
