Wisconsin Recap

[wesbass23]

There was no official thread started for the Wisconsin Regional, so I will just post my congratulations and thanks here.

First off, to all of the alliances we faced in the eliminations: you were all formidable opponents. It really took the best of us to be able to beat you. To 2826, 2481 and 269, you were the toughest of them and I knew it was going to be a good fight. 2826, I am glad you qualified for champs already with a Chairman’s win. 2481, best of luck to you at Crossroads – you truly deserve to go to the Championship, your 30 point climber will stand out of all of the ones there! 269, great defense throughout finals, you were key in pushing it to a third match (quite literally).

To our own alliance of 111 and 2338, I almost cannot believe we did it. It would have been impossible without you. 111, since our rookie year it always seems like we have been against you in the eliminations so it was absolutely incredible to be able to pick you for our alliance. Thank you for the “Accurate Autonomous” award, your own autonomous was a huge reason why we picked you. 2338, during the matches I was not able to watch you guys as I was focused on our own robot but I was able to go back and watch the match videos our team took. You guys played some incredible defense and did an excellent job in slowing down some of the top scorers and climbers at the regional.

Now aside from the robots, a huge congratulations to 1306 on the Chairman’s win. You guys have a great program and a very impressive team.

Overall a wonderful regional with numerous great teams, I look forward to seeing many of you in St. Louis!
