Hey Virginia teams, don't let these carpet baggers steal our awards!


Sadly, I'll be missing the Virginia regional for the 2nd time ever.

11, 25, 75, and 1676! Definitely good representation from the best state in the Union

Best of luck to you all! Bring home some blue banners and plenty of trophies!

Bring it, folks! VA teams won't go down without a fight

2363 will be there, and technically it is the second weekend of April.

Sure hope 1676 puts up some Trenton webcasts, but I imagine there will be a minor recording mishap whenever 25, 75, or 1676 are on the field.

If gas wasn't so expensive, I would try to round up two upperclassmen for a "scouting trip".

Also, kinda weird MORT isn't going to be at their home game this year in NJ. Isn't there testing that week?

Team 2386 from Burlington, Canada is coming down to heckle and add to the general debauchery, get stoked for some crazy canucks!

Testing is one of multiple reasons why 11 decided not to attend NJ this year. It has been an on going discussion on our team for the past few years. I am unsure if they plan to return next year. It is 11's first time since the team was founded not attending the NJ regional.

After seeing the results of the NJ regional, I am even more pumped to see how Virginia plays out. Pascack is a force to be reckoned with, and if 11's new minibot is any indication of 1676's minibot ( ), we will have two very strong competitors coming down along with 25.

For the first time in team history, team 612 will not be attending the VCU regional. Feels so weird

[Alexa Stott]

Looks like I'll be heading down to VA to watch 25 and the rest of the NJ teams along with Zara Simpson from 1676. Should be a great time!

TBA has the raw video that was webcast, it'll be posted as soon as it is parsed.

We will miss you guys! VA won't be the same without you.

[PayneTrain]

Decided to give the thread a little bump two days before practice matches.

The build room is locked today, but I'll see if I can get permission to record a video of our minibot that was built with help from GRR tomorrow.

We really appreciate the collaboration from 340 that lasted long after the Chesapeake Regional! The help you guys gave us allowed us to build our own Steves (We haven't named them yet; if you guys have an idea, let us know!).

The minibots are variants of the Steve we used in Baltimore; and their deployment+climb time clocks us in at around 2 seconds, which is quite marvelous.

Excited for the VA Regional in less than 2 days!
