Thanks for the congratulations!

The team signed the robot right before we started elimination rounds. They all kissed it right after.

We were very happy to work with 2557. We knew early on Friday that our robots would be a fantastic complement to one another and were very happy they were available to join our alliance. I didn't see it, but I was told that our student rep. communicated that happiness well.

2990 played fantastically well. They were quick -- but more importantly, they were smart. In our first quarter final, a problem with our kicker meant we needed to stay on defense in the opponent's home zone. 2990 adapted and did a great job at midfield keeping the heat off of 2557 and keeping balls available for them. Without their quick thinking, we may have been eliminated right away.
