Agreed. If you the left-hand navigation is in the same place on every page, you don't even need to have the top nav bar, which would make the layout a bit cleaner.

There should also be more of a change to the current page's link on the sidebar--maybe make it bold. It's a little hard to notice the difference between the purple and white, as you have it now (especially for the color blind 10% of the male population!)

Also consider making the nav links a little more descriptive (maybe "About the Team" instead of "Team", "FIRST Challenge" or "About the Challenge" instead of "Challenge", etc.)

Otherwise, the navigation system and site structure are very clear, and the content is presented clearly. Good work so far!

Oh, and I just noticed--have you considered moving the content from the Overdrive media page over to the new website? Most people visiting the site won't realize that they're looking at an old version of the site, and they'll get stuck in the 2008 version.

Overall, good use of photos, too.
