Thanks for the vote of confidence... I think.

Anyways, our field team consisted of four students without any adults there. Basically, the three non-drivers helped monitor the rest of the field so I could concentrate on our actual 'bot and coaxing it into turning even though it never really wanted to. This included things like telling me how much time we had left, which stacks to go after, what the opponent was doing on our side of the field, when it was time to race for the top, etc.

No driver, no matter how good, can keep track of four robots, 45 tubs, and an entire 1000 ft2 (approx) arena. That's what the mentors, HPs, and other driver are for.
