Great Plays of 2010

[Ty Tremblay]

The competition season has begun, and it's time to discuss the great plays that occur during the regionals and the Championship. This year I'd like to ask that links to videos of the plays be posted if possible. If not, please provide as much information about the match as possible. Let's hear 'em!

I don't have any videos, but I think one of the top plays was in game 1 of the finals when team 34 herded 3 balls in the blue alliance goal as time expired to push us to victory!

There was one were we were down by one with about 15 seconds left and we started to climb. It wasn't working at first and by the time we cleared the platform the buzzer rang. When removing the robot (we got the points!) One of the field crew came up to us and said: "Could you have made that any more dramatic?!?!"

They were VERY good at that!

In San Diego QF3, Match 2, 815 gets flipped very early in the match. However, that doesn't stop them, they still have 2 wheels touching the ground and somehow they not only manage to move, but play effective defense.

A slight clarification... they only had 1 wheel! :O It looks like two, but the other wheel on the ground wasn't even driven because the chain broke when they tipped over. We (846) were on their alliance and thought we were doomed, but they really managed to play some amazing D. One of the highlights of our trip

That match was one of the most entertaining matches i've seen in a very long time. Major props to 815 being on "two wheels" and still defending better than most of the robots i had seen at the regional! They drove me crazy that match!

I don't care what their robot does, ever, in any competition, I'm picking 815.

Here is some video of that match from the robots point of view. Notice the great autonomous goal scored by 1519 from the far zone at the beginning. It doesn't show the whole match since we put down the camera to go under the tunnel.

I believe that was the same match that 1058 from centerfield shot over 1073 (bounced it off their top) and into the goal.
