All of them are highly accurate in the top goal in autonomous, complete 4-5+ runs to the feeder station before quick 10 point hangs and know how to power through defenders.

Really sad these guys couldn't take home a win, their robots are amazing and fun to watch!

I'll second 1153, they really improved a lot as the season went on and barely missed qualifying. Also, I know this shows a little bit of bias but 1507 deserves a mention here. At Buckeye, they didn't lose a single match until finals match 1, during which something went wrong with their shooter. They weren't able to find the problem in time, were replaced, and their alliance lost the next match. Floor pick up, 4+ disc auto, quick cycles, 10 point hang, Buckeye finalist and quality award, FLR quarterfinalist and creativity award.
