But they sure did get a great trophy from it all. One of the drivers from 744 said that the broken piece of their claw was their real trophy. When it happened I was thinking to myself I hope this is the last time they are going to be using their robot because that'll be fun to fix. Congrats to all teams who participated. This year was a good one and team 1592 can't wait until this season's competition gets underway or for next year's TNT!
