Well, it was one great regional (my last as a student sadly). On behalf of 329 I would like to thank 527 for selecting us as an alliance partner and 353 for their outstanding performance. I really don't think that anyone was expecting the 22nd and 46th seeded teams to be such a threat, but we sure showed them! We're very happy to have made the finals and even though we lost, we're still happy with the results. With 287 being one of the champions, there's a good chance that they'll get re-sponsored, plus they get to go to nationals! So, congratulations to them and their partners, 496 and 2638, and a special congratulations to 353 for winning Chairman's. We're glad we had the opportunity to present you guys with the plaque. Great job everyone!
