Waterford District Competition

[Craig Roys]

Thanks Adam...The finals were 3 (actually 4) hard-hitting and intense matches! Definitely a hard-fought win that could have gone either way. Both sides were hobbling at the end...I'm wondering if either alliance could have played another match

Thanks to 3098 and 3773 for being tremendous alliance partners. 3098 - your transitions from offense to defense were so smooth and the ability for us to trade rolls on the fly helped keep the defense (somewhat) away. 3773 - I love your inbounder! That ability to get the the 3rd assist on many of our cycles is what the made the difference in most of our matches.

2137 - I hope there are no hard feelings. You have a great machine and you definitely deserved the 1st seed. We had a long discussion on Friday night and Saturday morning about our strategy and who our top pick should be...declining your invitation was one of the hardest decisions we had to make and you almost made us pay for it. You along with 469 and 4998 were a scary alliance. Just like the finals, the semis against you were 3 (actually 4) hard-fought and intense matches that could have gone either way.

Congratulations to 68 on your Chairman's Award.

I also want to congratulate 3539 on your Entrepreneurship Award and 5048 on winning Rookie Inspiration. It's great to see teams that we had a hand in helping start receive awards.

Thanks to all the volunteers and organizers for putting on a great event.
