Thanks to HOT Team 67 for forming the Hot Wings Express!

[Ken Patton]

I would like to say thanks to Team 67 HOT for picking us to take on the tough characters that were competing in Detroit at Wayne State University this weekend. Adam and Jim and the rest of the HOT crew led us through some great matches!

Adam, your confidence in how to make our strategy work was what we needed - you have an incredible team, and watching you all work together and succeed under pressure made it easier to understand why HOT is always so good - what a team. Amazing.

To the EXPRESS! - it was a blast working with you. Over the weekend our scouts got tired of me talking about how you guys play your game. I have been a fan of 1023 since your beginings, and it was cool to be with your team to the finish!

Congrats to the 27, 201, 1 alliance for playing through a tough field and for creatively helping us discover our "side hang."

Thanks to the volunteers at WSU who did their best to put on the show. Your hard work made it possible for the rest of us to have a great event.

It felt like old home week with so many alumni and friends in the building.

To the people in purple - I am so proud of what you have accomplished as individuals and as a team!
