Second Seed was 2753, 102, and 136
Second Seed won.
Design award went to 1279, highest seed to 1923, and highest score to 2753, 102, and 136. That is all I can remember.
It was an awesome event, many thanks to 303, Bridgewater's AP physics class(?), and all the volunteers that put it on. Also, congrats to 1923, 25, and 1048, it was awesome playing once again.

But there was a twist. When Dave was awarded the Woodie Flowers Award in NJ years ago a student from team 303 was quoted as saying "if there was a Dave Beck Award it would go to Woodie Flowers". So the BR2 management thought it fitting to do just that and therefore the first Dave Beck Award was given to our much admired master mentor. Woodie was moved to tears and it was a very special moment.
Later he spent most of the day with us on the teams talking about FIRST and our dreams of it's future. I know I came away from the day with a lot of hope.
there it is in a nutshell-
