Hey Jon, I didn't get a chance to speak with you, but I did get to spend a lot of time talking to your team's students and other mentors. I was blown away by the knowledge your students posses and how eloquently they described machine features. I'm sorry I don't remember the name of the tall mentor who was in your pit, but he was awesome to talk to. I've been a fan of your team and robots since you started and I was not disappointed by what i saw this year, quite possibly your best machine ever.

One thing both myself and that mentor I spoke to were disappointed in was the lack of carbon fiber or titanium on this year's robot.

Great robot, great season, great team. Best of luck in the off-season.
