[FTC]: Best Teams in FTC?

[normalmutant]

What exactly are you looking for? Just, interesting teams, or world-qualifying ones?
This year the teams were having a lot of trouble getting themselves together (as did we), so it wasn't as obvious which teams had more experience. But anyway, the teams we were watching this year did pretty well. I'll group sister teams together.
-Lancers 3415 and Landroids 4220 - both are very friendly, well-rounded teams and both won state Inspire awards.
-Pope John - 248, 247, and 4301 (I think) - all three teams made successful robots, but had some difficulties and distractions through the season (FRC mostly).
-MFS teams 110, 4500 and (237??) - ambitious
-Steel Hornets 118 - I think they designed their entire robot in PTC.
-Techbrick 7 (not really from NJ, but hey.) - Awesome costumes, btw.
-Us, 3539. We got the NJ Inspire and stuff. I think that so far, the only award we haven't gotten is the connect award, which is ironic, considering the amount of outreach we did.

And then there were some rookies who did really well that I think will be highly competitive by next season:
-Watt the Hex? 4311 (our sister team) - scored magnetic baton, won NJ PTC award.
-Overdrive 2753 (former FRC team) - sadly, didn't have as much time as they needed this year.
-Timothy Tigers 4031 - Well-rounded team, world qualifier (think award, finalist partner)
-CHS Cougars 4201 - another world-qualifier - great robot
-Nanogurus 4347

...And then I'm sure I'm forgetting some teams, but these are most of them.
