At the NC regional, the hedgehogs 587 were successful in outpushing a robot, so that only the defensive robot was able to get on the bridge. Good defense is always legal. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to upset the #2 alliance. Good job 1771, 2614, and 4083 anyway! Speaking of defense bots, 4083 was a triangle with wheels that could t-bone pin any robot at the competition.
