Everyone who enjoyed this year's NJ Regional can thank the quiet fellow in the tan ballcap, Fred Harding. Some of you may know him as the recently-retired team leader of the Tigertrons (FRC 222) and the the driving force behind the PA Robot Challenge. Fred was the FIRST Technical Advisor for this event and the man in charge of the field from the time the truck dropped it off Wednesday morning until the last piece was back on the truck Saturday night. He's the one people should thank for making sure the field worked, and I think we'll all agree that, despite the beating 59 terrific teams gave it, the field in NJ did work (and almost never broke). It was a pleasure (and a blast) to work with Fred and you'll be able to see him in action again next week at the Finger Lakes Regional.
