Thanks Ben! See you at Lehigh!

It sure was a crazy weekend! I'd like to thank our fantastic alliance partners 56 and 41! They were incredible. I also need to thank our scouts for finding those teams, they really did an unbelievable job.

I also want to draw attention to an ingenious defense selection made by our finals oppenents (222, 190 and 6203). For the finals they had us face the rough terrain instead of the rock wall (which nearly all alliances pick, as the rough terrain is laughable easy to cross). Because of that, we actually hadn't run our rough terrain auto routine for the whole event (we faced the rock wall each time); finals 1 was the first time it was really tested on an actual field. That clever trick made us miss our auto shot that match (we fixed it for finals 2 though). Anyways, I just wanted to give a shoutout to an incredibly clever tactic that cost us 10 points in the finals.


I was impressed with the changes 5684 made for Montgomery. They completely remade and greatly improved their collector, and added a cdf auto routine! It's incredible that this second year team has been an alliance captain at three out of their four district events in team history.
