I had the pleasure of meeting Team Tesla at the Silicon Valley Regional, and they guys and gals are very impressive.

At the same time, I am very happy to be a part of this rookie class, as a few of us started a rookie team here in the Kokomo, Indiana area. Look for team 3940, CyberTooth, in the Curie division with our purple powder-coated robot. The students are all excited to be able to compete with the best FRC teams in the world in St. Louis, and eager to make some new friends.

We even got to practice tonight at the TechnoKat (45) shop with some other local teams (234, 261, and 447) and pulled off a QUADRUPLE balance! (We're the skinny practice robot in the middle with the illegal bumpers) That was fun!

Sincerely,
Andy Baker

Hmm Fultz and Baker Quadruple balancing together - have you decided on IRI rule changes already?

I have the final count as 62 Rookie Teams! Congrats to all of you on your success so far!

I hope you'll be able to make time to attend the All Rookie Meet and Greet on Friday at 6:15 (at the end of matches!) The event will end at 6:45 giving teams time to make it to the ball game for the first pitch!

Watch for the invitation in your pits on Thursday Morning!

Can't forget 4130, Devil Robotics. They're also competing for Rookie All-Star. They have a really good defensive bot.
