You're correct. I forgot, since they've been on a regional drought.

.

We gave serious consideration to bypassing Super Regional North and going to a second regional but we'll stick with the norm this year.

That sad moment when you realize that unless Ed attends both Champs he won't be at yours

It is sad, isn't it?

We got close last year at Toronto but came up a little short against an awesome alliance.

One day it would be nice to win FLR since we have never done that!

FLR is a tough regional to win. Who knows what would have happened after quarterfinals if it weren't for that unfortunate red card?

I know this is off topic but I just went back and watched that match, what was the red card for?

Good question

I believe it was on 3015 for flipping 2010. It was a bit of a controversial call, and I can remember some individuals on some of the teams being very riled up about it.

It was 3015 flipping 2010 over.

I would have been, 3015 and 2010 met bumper to bumper once 2010 was clearly going vertical 3015 backed off. 2010 wound up completely flipped due to their own actions and was given the 10 second grace period to try to right themselves.

I don't see a G24 here but it was up to the head ref and if thats what he saw he has a better view then I do on that video.

Generally the referees at upstate NY events are fantastic and relaxed. That was very much a judgement call, and unfortunately it fell against 1511 and 3015 in that case.

Their opponents, 578, haven't won an event since 2001, despite having some close calls and some fairly competitive machines in that span of time, including being finalists at the 2016 NYC Regional.
