Re: 2009 Southern California Regional

Well .. time to throw my 2 cents in here

It was nice to see all the usual suspects down in LA again. All the 330 guys volunteering on the field and in the pits .. David from 980 (who I always seem to run into everywhere at FRC events) .. and of course our friends from north county .. GRR 973. It's been awhile since we were at the same regional, and this one didn't disappoint.

Playing back to back regionals was pretty tough, although we were still pumped up from our 2nd seed and finalist finish last weekend in SD. In 6 years, we've never seeded 1st or 2nd, let alone in the same season. 399 and 1671, you guys were great to play with. Those semi matches against 207, 973 and 2659 were the best matches I've seen this year, and probably some of the best matches I've seen in my history with FIRST. First the tie, then the next 2 matches with only a few points of separation - that's how it should be.

Also, thanks to all of you who came over to see the Gyro - it's something we worked hard on this year, and are very proud to be one of the teams that accomplished the task. We were really hoping to take it to Atlanta to show it to everyone else, but it just didn't seem to turn out that way. Sorry for all of you who were hoping to see it there - if you have questions or want more information on it, please PM me.

And thanks (and congratulations) to everyone else there. We all know that the California regionals are the best in FIRST .. and it's because of you guys. We'll see ya next year!

I recorded the field feed of all the qualification and elimination matches, and both award ceremonies. Hopefully in the next few days (depending on work), I'll be able to get them off the DVR and up on Youtube and TBA. I haven't had a chance yet to check out the videos. If you have anything specific you were looking for, PM me.
