Team 399 was our favorite robot and we were glad to give them a run for their money in the play-offs. We moved away from the pin because we felt it was best in the spirit of gracious professionalism and also because we were losing the match at the time. Additionally, team 399's human player was awesome and still scoring on us. We needed to herd an empty cell to our human player to exchange for a super cell in order to have any chance at victory....did anyone see our buzzer beater 30 foot shoot with the super cell?

As far as a penalty, I don't think any team deserved one. It was a great match and despite losing, we went away feeling great about ourselves. Team 399 members stood at the exit after the game, shook our hands and congratulated us on a great match. The end result was exactly as the competition was intended to be: challenging, fair, fun, exciting and gracious.

Thanks to all for a great regional.

You guys were great and I made sure to let your drive team know how well they did. We were surprised when you moved back and we weren't exactly sure why until now, but we high tailed it out of there to score again.

Oh and just FYI that was 1388's human player scoring on you. You guys were high on our list of teams to be chosen as a third bot, but unfortunately you were the first to be picked.
