It's been an amazing year - we're really thrilled with how it's gone: a quick summary:

31 wins, 1 loss, no ties
regional winner, KC
regional winner, 10,000 Lakes
(We scored the double ubertube 5 or 6 times at 10K)
quality award at KC
quality award at 10,000 Lakes
animation award at 10,000 Lakes
website award at 10,000 Lakes
Woody Flowers award for our team leader, Kenton Swartley at 10K

To make things even better, our scrimmage partner 967 had a fantasic robot as well and an awesome drive team. We were lucky enough to be able to partner with them at 10,000 lakes.

The cherry on top came at 10K when a team we mentored a bit, 3642 was still available for our third pick.

We could never have imagined that the year would play out so well.
