Re: BAE Granite State Regional
After coaching all day, I have a couple things to say. First off congratulations to Andy Grady for winning WFA. Secondly, the ramp is a nearly insurmountable bonus in the qualifiers. If a team manages to get all 3 robots on the ramp, you've got problems. Another sad thing is autonomous shooting is so rare, and for most teams that do it just going straight from your box is enough to throw them off. And not surpisingly, defense is very important. It becomes darn near impossible to do anything when you've got two robots on you as you try to go up the ramp, and one robot with a good driver does the same thing. Also, there are many balls on the field. On a side not, does anyone have the rankings, as the regional didn't show them for the last half a day?
PS. The ramp at the regional was steeper than ours, and I heard the same comment from various other teams.
