I really wouldn't consider us winning because our minibot was the only thing that really brought us to the Finals.Our scoring was mediocre and really needs some adjustments mechanically. With that said, our claw will be undergoing surgery for Philly. By then, we will probably be winning.

Our team started/mentored the rookie team 3536. When I first met the mentor I knew they would go far. I never expected them to go that far the 1st time up to bat!!
The Bees hung 2 uber tubes in autonomous....pretty impressive!!! Their mini is cute!

Exactly.

While occasional tube throwing is a smart decision to get a quick, high, score, tube starvation is a strategy that can be accomplished with the right supporting robots.

We will be throwing in week 2, very sparingly, but we will be instructing partners to capitalize on tubes thrown by opponents and to try and corral tubes into our scoring zone.

I did notice during week one the filling of the field with tubes was sometimes detrimental to the throwing team. I remember one specific instance where we were missing a square tube when an opposing human player very helpfully messed up a throw and delivered one to us, allowing us to complete a logo.
