I would like to thank the organizers and volunteers for this great event the competition was great and the overall atmosphere this year was out of this world. Special shout out to team 2502 and 5232 for being a part of our alliance. 2502's bot was an animal it shot the lights out in playoffs. I would not be surprised to see them win another regional this season. 5232 I felt was a steal for a third pick as they were a great defense breaker.
Also congratulations goes out to the Gators 5172, all I can say is wow what a shooter going to be fun playing at the next 3 events.
Nice job 2512 on the robot but also the amount of work your team does to put this event on.
Events like this will surely keep moving Minnesota to becoming the not just the State of Hockey but perhaps the State of Robotics.
Thanks again to everyone and we hope to see you at Iowa, Worlds, or State.

We had an amazing time at the Laker Superior Regional in Duluth finishing 3rd during elims. Thank you Plaid Pillagers (2538) and STEMpunk (4531) for being amazing partners in eliminations, so happy we got to compete alongside two amazing teams

Shoutout to KnightKrawler (2052) for being so graciously professional. After our first semi final round the arm on our robot had a catastrophic failure which caused us to lose control of our arm. KnightKrawler rushed over offering to help, even trying to use their timeout to buy us more time to fix the robot. Thank you so much that meant a lot to us

The event was a blast to do, and I had a huge amount of fun. Even though we didn't win, we'll push forward and try to do fantastic in the Iowa Regional. Congratulations to 2883, 2502, and 5232 for winning Northern Lights, and we look forward to competing against 2883 and 5172 again in Iowa.

Other than a tipsy drivetrain, 5172 looks pretty good shooting from the outerworks, where its protected. Does their shooter clear a 54" defender? Hard to tell. But if so, I see more hardware in the near future.
Meeting them at Northern Lights in 2014, it was great talking story with their team members again this past weekend.

I don't believe so, and that was our plan if we lost our first finals match. 5172 has an amazing robot, and I loved watching them.
