Since we were allowed to measure the field, I wanted to make sure all teams knew the measured dimension so that my team would not have any advantage over teams that were not there at the time.

Also I had no official position this year I just lent a hand where it was needed when my team didn't need me.

*nominal - number specified on drawing, actual dimensions will vary between two dimensions specified by the tolrerances.
