The Boeing ComBBAT Team (#21) graciously accepts your thanks.

It was a pleasure to compete with such professional teams. We consider field leadership one of the most difficult and greatest teaching challenges that FIRST has to offer. We were all completely impressed with the leadership skill of the Team captain and driver for Haworth Holland (#74). That's quite rare for a student. I'm sure it will carry him a long way.

And it's always a pleasure and a blessing to be paired with Heatwave (#312). They have a long and tremendous history of winning. Somehow, someway. Too bad we couldn't post another perfect, sub 1 minute score. It may have been enough to tie or even possibly win against the Champion Beatty and their partners.

Take care all.

PS - James if you can stimulate the creation of a small Mayhem in Miami competition that would be great. Sounds like there are motivation and momentum problems. We don't need a big competition or awards or anything. Just a field, a date ane we'll show up and compete.
