Well, it now seems that Team 714, Panthera, from Newark, NJ, is now registered for St. Louis as well via the waitlist, and is on Galileo. That's 2 MAR teams that now qualified through the waitlist. Congrats, 714! The MAR count at St. Louis is now up to 23 teams.

I like 714, they are a good bunch of folks, and they really work at it. Good for them!

Stats:
Biggest Gain: 2590, Archimedes, Increased 57 spots from Rank 67th to Rank 10

FYI, -spot means they went down in rankings (closer to bottom), +spot means they went up in rankings (closer to top). Best of luck tomorrow to everyone. I want to see at least 1 MAR Team on Einstein!

MAR is sending two teams to Einstein. 2590 coming out of Archimedes and 1640 from Newton. Best of luck teams!

It's been great keeping track of all the MAR teams attending STL this year. You all represented the region well.

[TomWx]

I would like to point out that, not only was MAR well-represented on Einstein, but that we have a Finalist team in 1640 and a Winning Mentor with Jared Russell, veteran from 341.

Personally, I want to say that it is amazing every time I get to see a MAR team on such a large stage. We're making a strong name for ourselves as a passionate, well-run district. We had teams in every division go on to elimination rounds with a very cool, calm, and collected professionalism unmatched in FIRST.

It makes me feel even more proud to see MAR volunteers across the venue. 708 had 8 students doing everything from field reset to Safety Glasses to helping in Volunteer Central. We had 3 referees from MAR, including one on Einstein. Two MAR familiar faces were Field Supervisors on Archimedes and Galileo. Our FTA friends Liz and Bharat helped keep fields running. (I'm pretty sure I even saw Gene helping out at registration at one point.) And I, well, I danced around on Newton and Einstein.

I look forward to seeing you all at some of the local offseasons and next year's District events. What another incredible year for MAR!

(p.s.: I'm helping create a standing volunteer committee for MAR. If you have any input, feedback from events this year, or any other questions/comments, send me a message.)

Just a bit of trivia I posted in another thread:

There was a MAR team in the finals of each division (including Einstein). That's awesome!

Newton - 341/1640
Galileo - 1218
Archimedes - 2590
Curie - 2016
Einstein - 1640
