Re: Freshman Positives

Hey, as a rookie, I was running from the stands to the pits and back again after every other match to give our drivers the match results and scouting info. Believe me, the freshmen can deal with being a battery runner.

Re: Freshman Positives

Eventually, the turning point for all freshman is when their mindset changes from
"I'm running with batteries because someone told me its important."
to
"I think our robot needs fresh batteries; it is completely essential to our team."

The change is basically becoming independent while still remaining attached to the general team motivation. Soon enough, robotics changes from your 3-day-a-week extracurricular activity to your 24/7 life.
