It was Nationals on Friday, our last match of the day. Our partner (sorry guys, I can't remember who it was!) and us were teamed up against 108 and their partner (again, sorry guys!). With about a minute into it, our alliance had scored 2 black balls and 2 yellow, with us on the bar. 108 and their partner had also scored their 2 black balls but had scored an additional yellow ball, bringing their score up to 23 with 108 on the bar. Our partner and thier partner both had problems, and with hardly no time left, our human player sunk a yellow ball tieing the score at 23. (You could call it his birthday present - it was his 18th birthday :-) As the match ended, we had won by getting the 2nd to last tie breaker, robot closest to the center of the goal, the next tie breaker being the flip of a coin. Definately a match to remember :-)
