Our drive teams had a little trouble adjusting to having the robot facing them most of the time.

Going over the bumps was not much trouble.

Balls against the side walls were difficult to break free.

I think there was only one goal scored during autonomous.

(I also attended the Suffield Shakedown)

I agree; majority of the matches were low scoring and out of the teams that were capable of hanging either struggled or successfully hung but not in the confines of the specified time.

Most of the robots were mechanum but some had difficulty traversing the bump or lining up with the tunnel.
