Rookie All-Star Award in 2015

the Midwest Regional will likely not be awarding out any of the Rookie Awards, as we have no Rookies

That said, I'm at a cross-roads. As a rookie team that won an event, and made it to worlds, we were very heavily inspired.

All season long they were captivated by these amazing teams and amazing robots, and it was like being able to meet their idols when we went to world. In fact, one of our team members pretty much tried to join the Cheesy Poofs during Archimedes finals.

Worlds has always been this kind of magical place and event, and offers a lot of inspiration.

So personally, at the end of the day an award is a trophy, and yes while it does represent something, I would give it out to an undeserving team if it had the potential to make them push harder to become a deserving team.
