Traverse City District is a great venue. It was great to be back after missing it last year. Everything ran smoothly, TC Central is a great facility, the volunteers did a great job taking care of the teams, the field, and the game play.

Congratulations to all who participated. This was a grueling build season, and there were a lot of competitive machines in play. It was fun to watch the game tactics and strategy develop over the course of quals and elims.

Thanks to 2474 & 4835 for partnering with us in elim's. 2474 - You built the right machine for this game. Your mad skills (auton, colored disc shots, and quick shooting) make you an ideal partner for any alliance. 4835 - Welcome to FIRST. You built a nice machine that did what we needed (auton, shooting, strong chassis, and willingness to attach a 60" wall). Congratulations on earning Rookie All Star.

Most of all, Congratulations to 2771 for taking home the Chairman's Award. I've never seen a team that was so well deserving. Your efforts help all of us in West Michigan build the FIRST culture. Thanks also for a couple of key pointers on how to build a better shooter.
