Michigan Championship - Go or No Go?

[Alex Dinsmoor]

I know I'm a little late to decide if you are going or not (I hope you do though), but I personally enjoy the practice day on thursday. Being the Head Scouter for my team, it gives my scouters tons of time to get information on the team, and lets them watch a few matches. I will also get somewhat of a break because I do 90% of the strategizing for my team on that Friday, which meant at the previous two events I attended this year, I was not able to watch any elimination matches (expect for the 12 we played in).

Also it lets our drivers really get a good feel for what the playing surface is like. If your team was like us, which went from a week 1 event to a week 4 event, you would have noticed how much different the playing surface was.

And of course Thursday leaves tons of time to make modifications to your robot if needed.

I thought you said you were head scout! We were in the elims with you at TC and against you at WSU.
