I will never accept a goal that says "push down on the top teams." (Pre-emptive response: I do not consider Lunacy <G14> to be supporting such a goal. It applies to everyone.)

Ensure that ... the top teams do not take the technology so far that the high school students become disconnected from the mentors.

That strikes me as a misdirected focus. Student/mentor disconnects do not occur only because of advanced technology.
We live for those eureka moments. Whether we win or lose competitions, it's those moments when a student's idea makes something just "click" that will stick with them and influence them to become engineers. - ToddF [more]
