They were picked third.

I believe 1114 and 2056 built them a new robot during lunch

Wow, the #5 alliance of 4525, 4519 and 4917 is really holding their own against the #1 of 1114, 2056 and 5288.

Series is tied 1-1, and the underdogs had a shot to win in the 2nd match, as they had a 3 assist ball in play they just couldn't score as time ran out.

These are really entertaining matches!

The #3 alliance of 2809, 4678 and 4814 alliance has looked really good too...

Its really interesting seeing the game shift week to week. With the run and gun offensive strategies started to become more prevalent recently it is interesting to see the game shift back to a heavy defensive struggle similar to what gtr-east was like.

Yes, 1114 helped us change our design to the wooden frame with the roller intake to better adapt to the gameplay they wanted.

Inspired by this design we went back to London and machined some aluminum out, and when we got to St. Louis we swapped the BAG motor, roller and ramp over.

The design was simplistic in nature but did so well, as it generated many assist points and still allowed us to play our defensive game.

Thanks, the TBA alliance order mixed me up. But could say the same thing about 4814.
