Re: Memorable Moments
I guess my favorite robot memory was the last match before elims. A robot (sorry, forget the number) came screaming down the field and hit us at full speed. We almost got flipped over backwards.

This would freak out most people but when my friend called me from the pits and told me that nothing happened to the robot it was an awesome feeling. In all of our matches we only had one part break and that was a sensor bracket that got destroyed when we hit 1501 (Sorry for the dent. It hurts to see such a beautiful robot get even the smallest of scratches.) in a full speed head to head collision.

This is a huge difference from last year. It's great to see our team continually improving. I hope that trend continues.

*Plus it made a great essay topic for a pre-AP English test...*
