Team 190 can proudly do the same.. our main focus throughout UTC and LongIsland was big ball scoring, and at LongIsland added to that was the ability to be a wedge and score a bigball SIMULTANEOUSLY... this allows for stratgies like the one we saw win UTC and we used to win LongIsland (i.e. robot grabs far goal with near is being filled.. drives to near, grabs that, then balances)... and we look to continue with our big ball loading..
And we haven't had the need to yet, but we can load the far goal on the balanced bridge WITHOUT having to cross the fence
