IRI was indeed our team's best competition this year. A lot of thanks goes into our (somewhat) success, and there are so many people that have contributed to our progress this year that they are well deserving of more than just a 'thank you'.
Andy Baker - There are so many things that are more than just words, but I will do my best. Andy let us come a day early and work in the aux. gym to get our robot running, and was a constant help throughout the competition. If I needed anything, Andy was right there for us.
Libby & Scott Ritchie, Chris Fultz, and David Kelly - Thank you for pulling off such a great event this year. Even though the amount of teams doubled this year, you managed it with style and grace (and Libby, with only a little bit of craziness
).
Teams 71, 447, 461, 494, 222, 1000, 68, 872, and 45 - For bailing us out time and time again. If we needed parts, an extra hand, or just moral support (which we needed a lot of), you were always there. Thank you for your friendship and your wisdom.
Ken Leung - Although you had a hectic week, you pulled this off without a hitch. I know you worked very hard to get everything going on Friday morning, and IRI wouldn't have been as smoothed over without you there.
Josh Hambright - For all of his help and support throughout the whole event. You deserved an award all on your own. Your cheering, advice, and even teasing helped a lot of people keep their sanity this weekend, and it didn't go unappreciated.
Team 980 and Doug Hogg - For our 'even trade' : We gave you some parts, you gave us an entire weekend of help. I really hope that we get to compete with you next year - come back to the midwest!
Great judging, EXCELLENT referees (yes, that also means you, John), and a well-put together event made for a great couple days of competition. Thank you for everything, but most of all, for giving this little team a big second chance.
