When I saw that happen on Einstein, I about had a heart attack. That was one of the very first things that popped into my mind when our team was having debates about whether to pick up from the floor or not. Our robot didn't really start working until Atlanta and then we never got to try it, so I'm glad someone was using it and using it extremely well!
My favorite moment was seeing the kids never give up. The kids have worked so hard this season but things just didn't go well at the regional level. I pushed for an open entry slot for Atlanta and I'm extremely glad I did. When that robot finally reached its potential and was shooting and picking up balls like it was originally intended, it was a very satisfying feeling. 11th seed is a very frustrating position to be in (not knowing if you'll get to pick OR get picked), and I feel bad for 159 breaking down to allow us to have a shot as a back up, but I'm glad we were able to bring closure to a great showing at the Championships.
