Congratulations are definitely in order for the alliance of 121, 40, and 134! Your alliance was definitely the one to beat at the tournament, and those 4 matches in the semifinals were extraordinary. In all honesty, the only two matches where you didn't beat us were when all three of your robots didn't stay on their wheels for the entire match! When you had all three robots running properly we were simply overmatched.

With the incredible robot that 121 built this year, (and in only three weeks!) you definitely deserved the recognition of being the #1 seed and also the regional champions. Well done!

That said, we'd love to have that first semifinal match (the 70-70 tie) back again -- our normal 12 points in autonomous were only 4 due to just barely clipping the center wall support just after going under our overpass. Or, for that matter, if we only had 10 more seconds in the fourth and final match -- both we and Gael Force (126) had just entered the home stretch with balls ready to hurdle... (Then again, you had some misfortune, too -- your autonomous mode in that one round with the long, long delay never did seem to get scored correctly; we're pretty sure that you scored 36 points, rather than the 32 that were on the big screen.)

In any case, best regards at the Championship -- you'll represent the Granite State Regional very well. We're hoping to see you carry that representation all the way to Einstein!
