Great Plays of 2010

[Ty Tremblay]

The competition season has begun, and it's time to discuss the great plays that occur during the regionals and the Championship. This year I'd like to ask that links to videos of the plays be posted if possible. If not, please provide as much information about the match as possible. Let's hear 'em!

I don't have any videos, but I think one of the top plays was in game 1 of the finals when team 34 herded 3 balls in the blue alliance goal as time expired to push us to victory!

There was one were we were down by one with about 15 seconds left and we started to climb. It wasn't working at first and by the time we cleared the platform the buzzer rang. When removing the robot (we got the points!) One of the field crew came up to us and said: "Could you have made that any more dramatic?!?!"

They were VERY good at that!

In San Diego QF3, Match 2, 815 gets flipped very early in the match. However, that doesn't stop them, they still have 2 wheels touching the ground and somehow they not only manage to move, but play effective defense.

A slight clarification... they only had 1 wheel! :O It looks like two, but the other wheel on the ground wasn't even driven because the chain broke when they tipped over. We (846) were on their alliance and thought we were doomed, but they really managed to play some amazing D. One of the highlights of our trip

That match was one of the most entertaining matches i've seen in a very long time. Major props to 815 being on "two wheels" and still defending better than most of the robots i had seen at the regional! They drove me crazy that match!

I don't care what their robot does, ever, in any competition, I'm picking 815.

When 610 would get shoved over they would run on their side to the bump and use it to right themselves every time.
That bot is gonna make some serious noise next time it hits the field in Waterloo.

Thanks for all the great comments on Team 1073 and our amazing winning alliance members !!! Not only were there some mind blowing plays, but we had to go into overtime after a win, tie, and loss. It was just an amazing weekend!

In match 15 at the 4:40 mark in the tape. Team 1986 colides head on with 931 who has posseission of a ball. 1986 then steals the ball straight out of 931's ball magnet and clears it.

Correction, semifinal #13. Cool.
