Silicon Valley Regional Thank-Yous

Wow, what an event! 971 has lot of thank-yous and congrats to dole out.

Our alliance partners 254 The Cheesy Poofs and 766 M-A Bears, it was a great pleasure working with you in eliminations.

254 had a bit of a rough start this year (wouldn't be the first time) but as always you climbed the ranks as you got the kinks worked out and it was very clear by the end of qualifications that you were the top pick. You've built another dominant scoring machine, and it can only improve from here. Watch out Central Valley!

766 is always a strong player in eliminations at SVR. You were extremely smooth on the ramp and played some great defense in the finals. Thanks for cooperating with us on our 4-ball autonomous routine, it was so much fun seeing that work!

We had a lot of great opponents in the eliminations, but 1868, 3256 and 751 were by far the scariest. 1868 going undefeated in qualifications with a great robot of their own, paired with 3256, one of the strongest robots at SVR and finalists at Davis was a potent combination. Adding 751, one of the best driving and defense robots on the field, we knew we had to bring our A-game. Thanks for some great finals matches!

A shout out to 604, 2073 and 192 for some INTENSE double-up defense in the quarter-finals. I was really glad to see 192 got their software gremlins worked out, unfortunately it was too late to really help your seeding. You've got a solid robot, we'll see you in St. Louis.

840, congrats on your EI. I haven't interacted with your team much but you sound well deserving.

604, you've got a really strong program and have been winning awards left and right for several years (5 RCA, 2 EI and 2 WFAA in the last 6 years!). Also a big thank you for the webcast so that us long-distance mentors and alumni can watch our teams play! Best of luck in St. Louis.

Andy Baker: I wish I was there in person to talk with you, but I know the students and mentors alike were really awed and inspired to have you as an inspector and get to show off their robot. We rely heavily on AndyMark products and it was a real treat.

254 and 1868 (again), for being great friends of our team, and sharing your field and resources with us at NASA Ames.

I'm sure I've forgotten some people and teams, my apologies it is not intentional. To everyone that's helped 971 in some way this year, a big thank you for helping the team get its first double regional victory.

On to Championships!
