[Wolfe]

Team #: 610

Team Name: Crescent Robotics

Speed: 4-5 ft/sec

# of goals grabbed: 1
-Once we grab on, there is no way you are getting that goal away from us. Grabber works on the fly, and can be fully controlled during the match

Ball Handling= none

2002 Canadian Regional - Winner
2002 Canadian Regional - Alliance Captain
2002 Canadian Regional - Engineering Inspiration Award

Special features: Robot was designed with an extremly strong drive system, which includes both the drill and chiaphua motors that are geared down for high torque, while still producing alot of speed. The robot has an extremly high amount of traction (which is increased when we have another robot on the wedge, or when we pick up the goal once we have latched on to it), which was shown at the Canadian Regional in the fact that we never had a goal stolen from us. We also have a wedge that can be used to grab other robots and reposition them around the field.

Team Number: 457

Team Name: Team Gamma

Speed: 3.4 ft/sec

Number of goals handled: one or two

Ball Handling: Good Human Player who is great at making long shots. Robot is only goal oriented.

Regional Results: 35th seed at Lone Star Regionals ( I think ) we were last after 4 matches, then won 4 out of 5. We were picked by Team 34 as a part of the 3rd seed alliance. Then we helped to win 6 straight in the eliminations to win Lone Star. We played in 4 of the 6 matches and contributed in each one. Thanks so much to Team 34 and Team 192, they are great alliance partners.

Team Number: 47

Team Name: Chief Delphi

Speed: didn't measure, but it takes us just under 3 secs. to get to a goal (wish there was a metric for POWER, that would be great to know)

Number of goals handled: one at a time

Ball Handling: We do okay, can gather a few and shake em out - my guess is that most already know about us

Regional Results: top 8 in each regional, made it to semi's, quarters, and finals (won in Grand Rapids) EPCOT is gonna be alot of fun!
