Cass Tech was amazing. The ice cream was good , the school was well prepared and was well suited to host this competition. The volunteers did a great job and exponentially got better as the competition went on.

There was a lot of good competition and a great gracious professionalism from everybody. It was disappointing that we tied that match but what can you do, we were still undefeated . There were some good cream of the crop teams to choose from for a first pick (217, 469, 326, 1701) but the robot chickens were as always a top of the line team and it would have been silly to let this opportunity for us to play together slip by. 3098 did great as our 3rd bot and surpassed our expectations as a rookie.

Other things I want to point out ^.^ ... Team 469 the Las Gorillas had a great drive train and were a thing to be reckoned with on the regolith with fans powerful enough to inflate the Georgia Dome or put out a forest fire (I heard those analogies somewhere and liked them) Team 326 was a team to be reckoned with, they had good strategy and once they got their mechanical bugs fixed they could dump balls like crazy.


Sorry if I missed anybody, I look forward to Lansing!!! see you there

Beth, thanks for doing all the math. Like the post two above, the only thing I have caught thus far is 123's score. It must've taken you a lot of time to do all the math!

For those of you who are wondering, if it was decided today, the 9 extra spots for Atlanta for teams who have not prepaid would go to 245, 2645, 904, 1250, 1918, 503, 1701, 326, and 453 with 1596, 818, 123, and 2771 close behind. This is assuming the chairman's/EI/rookie-all star/overall winners at states have not yet prepaid, and looking back to last weekend, if 67 and 217 have the chance to be together again at EMU, the rest of Michigan will most likely have two more free spots in Atlanta as well as some amazing matches to watch in the eliminations.

Congratulations teams 217, 67, and 3098! You guys definitely deserved to win. Your playing throughout the entire competition was splendid, and it was an honor to play against you guys in the finals.

217, you guys were great. If anyone deserved a victory, it's you. You were good in practice, and very good in competition. Congrats on a well earned victory.

67, your bot was fierce. You were, IMO, the biggest threat on the field all competition long. You were consistent, and deadly.

3098, never underestimate a rookie team. Great job on a well earned victory, and I hope there will be many many more in your team's future.

I can't wait to see 217 and 67 again at Athens. Good luck to 67 and 3098 at Lansing!
