Champions of years past

[The Lucas]

It was actually team 71, 294, 125, 365, and 279. 71 was the picking team, balancer, and big ball robot, 294 was the 5th seed and handled resetting the bridge, 125 was the big ball limbo bot, and 365 transported the human goal across the bridge. I don't remember what 279 did when they played.

Actually, MOE (365) handled the bridge resetting (big arm) and the Human player goal filling and transporting. 294 transported the Human goal once in a Newton match. 294 did reset the bridge occasionally but it took longer than when MOE did it with his arm b/c the two bots would get in each other's way. 294 was a good limbo bot. 279 was a big ball bot. It couldn't limbo but it filled in well when Nutrons broke their arm (they repaired it later if I remember correctly). In 2001, alternate teams did not have to play but 279 did.

This Alliance could consistently balance two goals (one human player filled), with two big balls on top, and 4 bots in the end zone in under a minute.
