Midwest Regional Inspirations

[Josh Hambright]

I have told this story already else where on these forums, But thought i could retell it because honestly it was one of the most inspiring moments i have had in FIRST, in my 6 years i'v been doing this.

After the finals were over, and the winner decided. Ken Patton, whos alliance was defeated, came barrleing over to Chris Noble and I grinning from ear to ear screaming "DID U SEE THAT!! DID U SEE US!! WE DID SO GOOD!! WE PLAYED THE BEST WE HAVE!!! WE WERE AMAZING!! DID YOU SEE US!!" They had done amazing, it didn't matter that they didn't win, that that mattered was that they had had a great time doing it and that they had given it their best. Thats one thing i have always loved about the Huskies over the years, they always seem to stay positive and have that high level of energy that inspires me to take everyone i do when i'm around them to the next level.

I really admired the engineering on the bots of team 71 and 111. If this is what our future engineers can create, I think the world might just become a better place.

This 1st one is kinda gloating but...we were 31st seed( because of failing arm.. ..) picked by the 3rd ranked team....( we then went from 31st to 3rd) then winning second place ( 31 to 3 to 2 )..YAY

This one is 4 teams 71 11 and 537, nice jobs, u guys were all good at getting 2 tetras at a time...there was no way of winning unless u guys got stuck or a penalty....

Hope to see u all at Regionals
