One team had omnidirectional last year, and I forget the number, but I think it was a first or second year team. Basically it entails having three or four omniwheels perpendicular to the center of the robot. With three wheels, each unique combination of independent torques to the three wheels results in a unique direction and angular velocity of the robot.
You're talking about team 857, they weren't exactly rookies last year:

We can all learn a thing or two from team 857. From what I heard, they really didn't want to be rookies last year, but it was an administrative decision to do so.
