Re: 2010 NASA/VCU regional!!!
Amid the well-deserved accolades for the regional and (all) the teams that made it great and great fun - I would like to recognize six students from four teams. They were the champions and finalists in our third annual Virginia 5th Gear tournament Saturday.
Alex, Andrew and Trevor, from Teams 75, 2028 and 2862 got together during the regional to form the Phantom Pirate Raiders alliance and take top honors.
Runners-up (by just a single point) were a trio of Awkward Turtles from team 2708: Zachary, Bradlee and Tad.
Running the show at the regional was fun for David and me, and we hope using the simulator during the build season and afterward is fun and enlightening for you.
Blake
PS: Honorable mention goes to Eric, Alexander and Michael who came in 3rd.
