Team 69 can't wait till this weekend. It's going to be so much fun and excitement. Can't wait to see everybody there!

[Rambots]

Team 1350 The Rambot's are ready to play!

This will be the best Boston Regional yet!

Allow us to introduce - Semmetric AL (The Shark Hunter)

We challenged ourselves to make a completely symmetrical robot.
It has wheels top and top (there is no bottom)
Also has double ball control rollers and kickers
Oh yeah - we are using a telescoping fishing pole (which works in both directions) to place our "Shark" hook (it's the real deal - 880 lb test) on the bar to allow us to winch up.

Best of luck to ALL teams!
We hope to join you in the finals!

Very cool! I was hoping someone would make this kind of bot this year. Reminds me of a R/C car toy I had back in the 90's that I can't seem to remember the name of. Hey all of you 'raised by Nickelodeon' kids, can you help me out? It had two big wheels and would flip over when you changed directions really fast. One side was blue and the other was orange.

Team 11 is excited to meet up with old friends and play with many new ones.

1511 will be there after a 3 year hiatus.

I personally can't wait to finish up my senior year of regionals in the very same arena that I was 3 years before!

Oh, and we have a few surprises of our own to unveil

[JamesBrown]

3280 will be there, coming off a pretty successful WPI Regional (4th seed, Rookie Inspiration, Highest Rookie Seed, and a Woodie Flowers Finalist Award for our lead mentor).

Look for everything we showed in Wocester plus the ability to score two balls consistently in Autonomous from the second zone, and the ability to hang. Both of these were abilities that the robot had but the team didn't take advantage of.

I'm heading over to Boston University right now....I hope everyones ready to start this thing off huge!

[Conor Ryan]

I couldn't make it (neither could 3186), however 1403 is back, and most of my family made the trip. Looks like it has a pretty great team list, as we have come to expect from this regional. Oh look the LED curtain, it is pretty amazing!!! Check out the webcast!

For those of you who have never been to the boston regional before, this is one of the premier regionals to go and see. The also tend to have a little extra showmanship.

[Tom Bottiglieri]

Go 125! You have a bunch of folks rooting for you over here in San Jose!

Darn it. ustream.tv is blocked at work. I can't even watch matches during lunchtime.

[Tom Bottiglieri]

If I were in a match against 125, I would play 6v0.

Just sayin.
