Re: 2009 Silicon Valley Regional

OMGOMGOMGOMG We are next =D I'm so excited Sacramento will be brilliant this year. After 968's fantastic display at San Diego I am truly scared of 254 . Anyone know if Mark Leon is MCing or if he is going to LA? After loving NERDS Youtube video's I can't wait to see their robot in-action! Go Shooters! Silicon is always exciting and intense. Also I can't wait to see what happens between 100 and 254, who between the two of them have been on the winning Silicon team EVERY year IIRC. Maybe we can get seed 1 last pick again like 2007 . Good Luck all teams!!! Im so EXCITED!!!!!!!

Mark will be MCing SVR as always.

100 and 254 have not been the winners of SVR every year-in 2007 (The only year 254 has lost), 190, 1280, and 1516(?) won. 254 lost in the quarters and 100 in the semis

Re: 2009 Silicon Valley Regional

Thats right 100 won Davis (with us ) that year, I always mix em up.

And you got the teams right, 1516 was the third member they are a local team of ours.

Re: 2009 Silicon Valley Regional

Can't wait to head on over to the Event Center! We're really looking forward to finally join in on the competition this year, I've gotten tired of waiting while other teams had fun these last two weeks. We're certainly hoping we can win SVR for the second year in a row, preferably not in the same fashion as last year(the hold-your-breath last pick and the controversy in the finals). But of course, the most important thing is for us all to have a good time. See you guys Thursday!

Oh, and I noticed 2024 completely disappeared at some point, anyone know what happened to them?

I remember talking to them a little while after the Hawaii Regional last year. From what I can remember, I believe they have a lack of resources to be able to full on compete in an FRC event. I think they're still involved with FIRST somehow though.

2024 asked us to take their place....................nah, just kidding.
There were several reasons for which they could explain to you folks later, but in a nutshell, resources was one of them.
They are not doing FRC this year, but still are involved with other Robotics programs as much as they have been the last several years.

I personally have not been to the SVR since 2001, but our team last attended in 2003. We are looking forward to attending and seeing new and old friends. We just had a blast with 192 being next to us in the pit all weekend in Oregon. What a class act team.
Here comes the Hawaiian Kids!

Re: 2009 Silicon Valley Regional

I just came across a picture from the 1999 Regional, held in 1999:

Funny, that team 255 that no one picked, WON the National Championship the very next year as alliance captain!

Just setting the record straight - the Wiki lists team 25 as the winner and doesn't even mention 255.
