Re: Team 20 would like to ...

We were also not selected on the Newton field after going 3-4. After so many years of great success including back to back Einstein appearances (2007 and 2008), plus The finals of Archimedes losing to the eventual winning alliance, and generally considered to be a strong team ever since my freshman year. Being my senior year, and the fact that I was the base driver who sucked it pretty hard, makes me pretty sad about it all.

But We've had a lot of success and it was humbling to be a middle of the field robot. To go into matches knowing that each one was gonna be a struggle. It was kinda exhilarating. In the end I don't regret too much, our team had just as much fun as ever, we learned alot, and we made friendships with some new teams, as well as keeping some older friendships alive and well. Yes it would have been nice to add another banner or two to our collection but FIRST is about more than banners.
