Exclamation Triple Crown Belongs to 121!

Rally, Mayhem, Battlecry: The Triple Crown.

121 won Battlecry with 190 and 311.

After qualifying third and being picked by 190, we, along with 311, almost lost in the quarters due to an incomplete battery hookup. But after fixing that little problem we went through the semi's with no problem.

Then came finals. This was an important match-up. 311, national finalist, and us, 121 UTC champs, all wanted a piece of 173. They had been bragging that they would win UTC from the beginning.

Then came nationals, where we did very well. We lost our divison finals by inches. Battlecry comes and this was our chance to prove once and for all that 121 could have a chance against RAGE.

Now onto the Battlecry finals. We lost the first match because our partner broke down. The second match we dominated with 190 to score many balls in one of our 2 goals. Then came the last match.

This match was possibly the most exciting of my life. I will never forget it. Rage was with 237, a 2 goal grabber. We were with WPI.

They started off by grabbing 2 goals and anchoring them in our zone. We got some of the balls that 237 tried to knock away from us. After dumping our set of balls I decided to try to steal RAGE's goal. They had already dumped once. Our driver proceded over to rage and bumped them. Rage's arm was up which changed its center of gravity completely. THIS CAUSED THEM TO FALL OVER. The crowd went crazy. Rage was near our homezone so our driver thought we should get some more points. He pushed them into our zone. The crowd went crazy even more.

We then retrieved Rage's goal which had some balls in it. 237 tried their hardest to play defense, but failed. We ended the match with 3 robots, 3 goals, and 29 balls. We shut out RAGE 89-0. I think this is the greatest margin of victory this year

I will be adding some pics and possibly movies of how that match went.
