Jon Lawton is an unknown quantity at this point

A number of teams used sensors for traction control (IE, making an encoder wheel, and watching for wheel slippage) or other non-goal-related things. As somone who worked field-reset at the Southern California Regional (and who had to re-tape the goals every day) I, too, can say that the tape did indeed look pretty bad after a few matches. It sounds like everybody "ooo"ed and "aah"ed over the tape at kick-off, but later discovered that it wasn't as cool as it had orignally seemed. Just my take...
