Re: 2010 Pittsburgh Regional

We had a blast at the Pittsburgh Regional. It was great to see the different approaches to overcome that challenges that were placed before the teams. 1114 is a very well designed machine. The lift system was very sleek and efficient and it was very entertaining to watch it do it's thing. On the note of the controversial match, we feel that all of the robots on the field showed their spunk and it really was a great battle. Robots were slamming into one another and soccer balls were flying everywhere. The red card was unfortunate but nevertheless, a great team did go through and they won after fighting a very good set of matches. Well done everyone!

I do not think so. Robots were bumping into each other and soccer balls were flying everywhere. It was an accidental thing that was really no big deal. Like mentioned earlier in the thread, these kind of things happen in typical soccer games. If there was a problem and someone got hurt, there were medical teams standing by. Everyone was completely safe.
