Team 5012 is looking forward to fielding two robots on both days!

I always look forward to attending the Fall Classic. Well run event, great teams, and great people. Burroughs was a good setup. I can't wait to see what the new venue brings!

Will there be a video stream of the competition?

Sad that this will be the first Fall Classic I've missed in 4 years.

Team 330 will be bringing our 2014 practice robot with the 2015 beta control system installed to compete. Be sure to stop by and look at the hardware and ask questions.

[Mark Sheridan]

Is there a list of competing teams for both days?

3476 will be there for both days. 3309 can only make it to Saturday because of a conflict with the Boeing C-17 day on Sunday.

Never mind, I found the google docs sheet from the SCRRF website.

[Jeremy Germita]

Can't wait till Saturday!

Questions about pit layout: Will teams fielding two robots get a double sized pit? Larger(but not quite double-sized) pit? two separate pits? And will the standard pit sizes be 10x10?

Kind of a weird question that I think I know the answer to, but our marketing and imagery kids want confirmation so that they can plan our pit presentation accordingly.

While match scores had a rough start, the volunteers got it down accurately by the finals.

Are there Lexan sheets across the bars above the drivers heads? It was in the update after week 1, for week 2 events.

Sounds like they need some cardboard.
