2014 SCRRF Fall Classic Results

The biggest ever SCRRF Fall Classic event is in the books and it was a great pair of competitions!

Two separate tournaments were conducted: Saturday and Sunday editions of Aerial Assist.

Thirty-eight teams participated in the Fall Classic: 26 on Sat, 21 on Sunday with11 teams competing on both days.
Several teams brought two (or more) robots, resulting in a total of 44 robots in the competition!

Network connectivity issues with the tablet-based automatic scoring system impacted scoring and ranking on Sat.
Still the teams were able to compete in 5 qual matches, followed by a final four elimination round.

Here are the Saturday results:



The scoring process and smaller field on Sunday allowed teams to play 7 qualification matches.
Double elimination semifinals were run for the final four tournament.
