Yesterday was practice rounds and interestingly the teams got 4 sessions each but with the same partners each time. The sessions were done well and they even let overturned teams come out and flip their robots back over if they could do it safely.
Oddly, team 25 was paired with team 555 and against our rookie friends at 1089( and their partner who I cant remember sorry). That drive team includes two of my sons who proceeded to "come after" their old man's team on the hill and gave everybody an exciting show.
I cant recall seeing 352 play but I can tell you that teams to watch I recall seeing are 303, 102,103,618 and of course 25 with 1089 as a definite rookie contender (personal bias ; ) ).
Like most of the regionals we've seen, much of the day for most teams was spent repairing drill gearboxes.
And, like in other threads, a number of teams got their crates back in poor condition. A few didn't arrive until yesterday morning and that was from the Phila. regional only about 50 miles away.
Well, we go to competition in 4 hours and I need to get ready. I'll report back tonight if I can keep my eyes open.
