Team 25 has always had students and former students as mentors for the drive team. Last year (2001) we had full student teams for the entire competition and found out that older kids and engineers on other teams had a hard time working with sophomore and junior students. This year we had a former driver team member, now graduated, return as the mentor and act as "assertive spokesperson" for the drive tream. It worked out much better for us.
Our whole take on the thing is that kids know how to play the game better than the adults. It is a natural fit.
