in your architecture class, you make sure to include a garage large enough to house an FRC field.

Only one FRC field?

...when you check CD every chance you get. And are sad there aren't many updates in the sections you usually check.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

When... in the past 3 days, and a few Colleges calling, you land a FIRST student on every call [besides one, but she was dating a first student]

Here is a shoutout to the Kil-A-Bites, 1024, I got a former member of yours from Ketterling just a few minutes ago^^
