I was privileged to be a judge for the event (thanks Marsha!), and it was awesome. The atmosphere in the pits and on the playing field was very FIRST-like. The matches were exciting to watch too! If you can make the league championships Saturday, you should go!

The positive influences of FIRST were evident everywhere. A high quality kit of parts, a good scoring system, and lots of cooperation in the pits. Some robots even borrowed features from their FIRST cousins.

This could easily be a 'sport' that occurs regularly in gyms around the country.

Team 1 and the others that have worked so hard on this deserve a lot of credit - they have been persistent in their efforts to keep the event high quality. Way to go Mike and Justin and everyone else....
