Cows and Bacon. You guys are making me hungry!

Don't forget about Michigan. The teams winning at MSC will likely be heavy hitters with multiple wins as well.

We are also missing the ever winning team we look up to: 233 The Pink Team

Wow, so does that mean there are 3 Florida teams competing for WCA?

No, because 233 didn't win it this year according the FIRST. https://my.usfirst.org/myarea/index....ils&tpid=83195

No, they won EI. 1885 won RCA at DC.

You can't forget about 27 and 503. I believe this year one of those teams will be admitted to the Hall of Fame. In the past 9 years, 503 has took home 7 RCAs and 27 has took home 5.

Technically, neither us nor 503 have won RCA this year because MSC hasn't happened yet, and nobody in Michigan or Mid Atlantic can be put on the list because we all only have district Chairman's awards. RCA's will be decided next weekend.

Not true. 2016 from New Jersey (a MAR team) won RCA at Buckeye.

That rule is something we thought carried over from FiM; however, MAR teams are only restricted to submitting WFA and Dean's List inside the MAR district events.

This is an intriguing rule...

I know that. But almost every year 27 and 503 won a DCA, they took the RCA at States. I still think DCA winners should be put on the list in a different section. Achieving a DCA is just as challenging as the RCA.

Winning a MSC or or DCA in Michigan is actually much more competitive with so many teams, amazing engineers/mentors associated with the Big 3 in Detroit, and the inspiration that drives these teams as a result of these kinds of mentors who have worked with so many other companies from around the area. 27 and 503 are definitely an inspiration growing up in the area. I don't know much about 2337 and their programs, as they is part of a newer generation, though I'm sure they are on their way to achieving a wonderful chairmans worthy team. From what I heard, they're a great bunch of kids too! I graduated from the area many years ago, and have just been amazingly blessed to have such a family and team behind me every step of the way. It's not just about the award, the team or mentors, but the legacy the team brings to the table because they are inspired by the mentors, the innovation in Detroit and all the its supporters. It may be a competitive area, so it just makes the innovate and find more inspiration to go above and beyond and I think that's what happened to all their students in the video here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P-EwzgF0-w

Did 233 submit to SVR, which is a week 6 and still to be played out?
