Team 852 wishes to thank them and the Aiken Magic for being our alliance partners. Well done guys!!!

We from 1648 also want to thank Team 852 for choosing us as an alliance partner and their incredible defense play. And of course we also want to thank the guys from 1102 M'Aiken Magic for supporting us with their great robot and support that brought our alliance to rank 2nd : ). Good Job! : )

I heard those "great things" too.





Team 1676 just hopes to make a good showing.

Speaking of amazing rookies, Team 1592 was part of our winning alliance at the Florida regional. They had an excellent drive system using the kit gear box and six wheels, and they had an arm/gripper that worked very well. We picked 1592 over a bunch of veteran teams, and they didn't disappoint us.

Looks like team 1625 dominated St. Louis. Undefeated #1 seed. Regional champions. Highest rookie seed (obviously) and rookie all star.

they were a great team...no disappointment at all that i saw...great job to them!!!

We had a dream team. 1648 deserves all the accolades thay are getting.
832 was a fierce teammate.
Read the play-by play for our alliance (from an 1102 perspective) at our website. I think our teammate was 832 , not 852.
See 1648 in action...

Scroll down about 300 lines to get to the allinace picks and matches.
The movie is jumpy but shows the amazing accuracy of the 1648 machine.

Let's Make Magic again sometime.

Team 1671 got highest rookie seed and rookie all star award. Plus they had a very creative (and not to mention beautifully decorated) robot. They would use the manual loader to set a tetra on top of the bot, and then they flip their cover up to pour the tetra under a goal. Plus they were quarter finalists!
That team has it made. I like them a lot.

yes for sacremento 1671 definitely showed great promise. Their design was simple yet effective as they could easily gain quick control of rows and also were effective at pushing. gj to them, i could see them doing well later
