Re: What Happened to 968 (RAWC)?

The HS Freshman inside of me is extremely grateful for this thread.

968 is one of those teams that sticks in my head as 'dominant' regardless of their performance as of late. Being a 'young' participant in FRC back in 2006, 2007 and 2008, some of my most influential Memories are of the 25/968/195 Alliance in 2006, the super light 2-speed developed by 254 and 968 in 2007 and the 2008 254/968 machine being one of the only machines that seemed to be close to the same league as 1114*.

*For those of you who are not up on your late 00's FRC history, 1114's 2008 machine is arguably the most dominant conventional machine of the 'modern' era of FRC. At the Championship in 2008, 1114 made it out of the stacked Galileo Divison as the Undefeated Captain of the #1 Alliance and selected 217 and 148 to be their alliance partners. In the finals they went head to head against 1717 and 254 and won in two matches.... Then on Einstein, they lost one match - 1114's only loss of the 2008 Championship, to the Newton (I think) alliance captained by 968... It was an amazing thing to watch. (Newton Alliance was 968/233/60)
