Re: 2014 Arizona Regional

Way to go 2486, 842, and 2403!!!! You guys were awesome!!

Also thanks to 60 and 1726 for picking us for your alliance. We were/are honored to be on the team. We've realized since being back we've been in the elimination rounds with 60 three out of our four years back!! Twice in the finals in a row!!

My brother David and my sons Gary and Kevin helped start 4183 Bit Buckets, and have been mentoring them since.

We got to play against the Bit Buckets in the quarter finals, it took three matches but we pulled off a win. After winning the semis, we fought hard but could not take the incredible alliance of 2486, 842 and 2403. Congratulations to the Regional Winners, you were fantastic! And make that a double, counting the Chairman's Award for 2486, and Engineering Inspiration for 2403. You make me proud to be a part of FIRST in AZ.

A very big THANK YOU to the Bulldogs, team 60, for picking us to play with you! and the Gila Monsters, 3785 for joining our great alliance! This regional was the first time I was "behind the glass" and you made eliminations a fun, exciting experience.

Also a huge thanks to all the volunteers that made the regional happen. I was very impressed with how smoothly everything ran. Great job!
We were honored to be part of the team. We hope to work with you in the future as well!!

From what I understand, the first will be the same (week 4) and the second will follow around week 6.

Special thanks to teams 812 The Midnight Mechanics and 2840 Blue Tide for welcoming us with gracious professionalism as a backup robot in the semifinals. It was a honor to play with you guys.

To all teams: Everyone played great matches. We proved that Arizona teams are the ones to watch out for.

Our team will be back next year better than ever. We hope to see all teams back next year with just as good and even better robots. See you next year.

Peace Love and Robots,
Team #4111
Most definitely! Thanks for being the backup for 4985 elkSPLOSION! Arizona was our team's last regional and it was a great experience. Biggest high school we've ever seen.
