Re: What Is Something Awesome That Happened To You And/Or Your Team This Season?

One of my favorite moments of the season was our sixth or seventh match at the Traverse City district. This was our first year attempting to use a swerve drive, and it was having some serious issues. The first several matches we ended up being more or less a doorstoo. So anywho, we all hurry back up to the stands praying that our bot will finally work this time and, lo and behold, tele-op starts and our bot rockets forward. We promptly become stuck on two balls earning us a penalty and a loss for our alliance. We didn't care though, to see our bot actually moving around meant way more than a match result. It was priceless =)
