Our team's students have typically decided in the past few years that one of our explicit goals is to win competitions. It turns out that we have a highly experienced adult mentor with a good sense of strategy who commands respect on the field as a drive coach. Not to take advantage of that resource would reduce our competitiveness.

In some years, the team has had a strong goal of being very student-focused, and we have had a student coach. It depends on what the team wants to get out of the experience.
