Re: Thanks and Congrats 1114, 469, 2041
Thank you 1114 and 469. All of us on team 2041 were very excited to be paired with two such powerhouses.

Karthik, Jeff, Todd, Kyle and all the rest of the 1114 crew:
I have always heard that it's wise to spend a little time and learn how the best teams operate. That was very true this weekend. Seeing the success of 1114 on the field is nowhere near as inspiring as seeing the methods and the approach which brings about that success. Everything from strategy to robot repair was well thought out and planned. When 2041 had no carts to bring our tools out to the field, you had us covered. When we lacked the tools and parts to quickly fix our robot, you had us covered. You settled us down and gave us a routine inspection after every match. On top of this, you really managed to make us feel like a welcome part of the alliance. Your team augmented our ability in every way possible and I think that is what truly sets you apart.

Daniel, Art, and the rest of the 469 Crew
What can I say that has not been said by countless others? Your team has had a HUGE target on its back ever since your robot was unveiled and you handled that burden beautifully. You guys truly had the game figured out from day one and I was honored to work with you. 2041 was also glad to have your technical expertise when trying to figure out how we could quickly reinforce our cracked wheels.

Its no wonder why every team in our division was hoping to be in our position. We are very lucky to have this experience and I am certain my students will carry the memories for a long time to come.
