Re: 2009 Florida Regional

Another year, Another great Florida Regional. The finals, and the final match in particular were extremely close and were the funnest matches I've ever been apart of.

I want to send out a huge thanks to 179 and 1649 for picking us. We were definitely happy to be picked by two teams that had such awesome robots. Working with you guys was amazing and I feel like our three teams had zero problems working together. I want to send out a special thanks to 179's driver, Cody (sorry if I didn't remember the right name!). He was a huge help and gave some experienced tips and just kept the atmosphere very light-hearted that really kept my nerves down while on the field.

I want to send a super huge thanks to all the Pink alumni that came out the event. Gabe was a huge help on the scouting and strategy all throughout the elimination matches and Duke was a huge help to me as a driver. He helped me keep everything in perspective, and helped me keep my confidence up and gave me some great tips on driver mentality.

744, 79, and 1251 created the most thrilling best of three I have ever been apart of. After two (somewhat) lopsided victories our alliance barely squeezed out the win. I respect all three of those teams greatly and hope top see them out on the field later in the season. If there was nay alliance I wanted to lose to, it would be that alliance.

As always thanks to all the volunteers and people who ran this event, it was great.
