I was really excited to see your team in the finals, being rookies as the third seed at VCU of all regional competitions (I've always felt VCU is a particularly stiff competition compared to others) is an amazing feat. Your team performed well and deserved the awards you got. You also mentioned funds (edited for space) and I must say that that's very true. Paying for Atlanta isn't easy. It's fun, sure, but being able to come out of there with money still in the bank is even less easy, potentially team killing if you're not careful with money. Keep at it, I'll have my eyes on you as I'll continue to be volunteering at the Virginia regional from now on!

I cannot add anything else to this post, very great insight into how the Rookie All-Star award works. No hard feelings here (339) for being crushed by you, 1086, and 1418 in the semifinals! If only the four backup robots hadn't packed up we might have been able to fight more...
