Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years

[XaulZan11]

I'm surprised how many people are using unofficial off-season events (including unofficial "state championships") as justification in their rankings. When I was with 1732, other than IRI, we would always use these events to train new drivers and pit crew. The goal wasn't necessarily to win, but give students (and mentors) experience in new roles.

I certainly understand that point for standard off-season events, but a state championship, official or otherwise I'd expect teams to come with their best effort. I'm ok including those.

All of Vermont has:

95
885
2370
2523

So, I have to go with every team being in the top 5.

It's like in the NFL you can play in a weak division or a tough one. I'll take the tough one as it pushes you each season.
This is a "leveling" game if you have not noticed. Hard to be super dominate due to the defense unknowns and vision difficulties. A tough game on all. Fun. I love seeing top tier bots (and having them on our side of the glass sometimes).

Oh darn. That's not what I meant. If you do happen to lose (and give it 100%), you definitely won't feel bad about it. The best part about this event is that it's early, so the ramp-up effect will be in full play as well as there's a few opportunities outside of awards to qualify for championships

4039
and a whole lot more. with everyone chasing 1114 and 2056 on a regular basis Canada has arguably the deepest level of good teams.

Both perform very well every year (3824 made it to the playoffs in Palmetto this weekend!), and HVA help us out so much (giving advice, extra parts, etc.) these last two years we've been a team. Who knows, maybe we'll rise to the top with them in a couple years

I don't keep up with many teams outside East TN, sadly.

4296 is from Illinois.

I'm new here (second year), but these are some teams that come to mind.

Connecticut (CT):

195 CyberKnights
2067 Apple Pi
230 Gaelhawks
2170 Titanium Tomahawks
175 BUZZ

Honorable Mention:
4557 FullMetal Falcons

She probably means 4265. Tennessee is presently weak but growing.

3824 - 4 regional wins and one regional finalist, one championship finalist
4265 - 2 regional wins and made it to Einstein in 2015
2393 - regional finalist
4576 - regional winner
3140

Lots of young teams. Only 4 teams in the state 6 years ago and about 25 now. I really admire what Michigan is doing in terms of state support.

What happened to them? TBA says that 2014 was their last year. Sad to see them go.

I'd say it's hard to pass 177 in that list!

California:

4. 1717 RIP
5. 971/330/973 (Solid robots almost every year)
