Waterford District

What an amazing event! The double triple balance in the finals is probably my best FRC memory of the year. This is the second weekend in a row that our team has come from the bottom of the rankings after prelims (35th today) to finish in the runner up alliance. This is why the serpentine draft system is so great. At the end of prelims we were 35th despite having the highest BP points of any team at the event. We were worried that nobody had noticed our bridge manipulation/balancing skills--thank you teams 3098 and 573 for having faith in our abilities. Congrats to 2851,67 and 469 you were a great alliance. Milford's team 67 bot has to be one of the best bots in the country.

Now we will hold our breath and see if we will get a slot at the state championship-- we are hoping to get another chance to team up with our former alliance partners from both the Kettering and Waterford events. Our team is from a high school (Webberville HS) with 187 student. For a school this small to get a chance to compete at this level is very exciting.
