Congrats to Red Alliance Teams: 604, 2761, and 3256! You guys are the new Sacramento Regional Winners

[Akash Rastogi]

Leave it to 604 to mentor a rookie team that wrecks the competition.

Congrats 604, 3256, and 2761 and also 1323 for a great run. Funny how 2761 was started and mentored by 1323. These teams both know how to mentor it seems.

Congrats 3256 on RAS and 604 on RCA =) Eugene you built a great robot.

Congrats Marian, 2010 Dean's List Finalist! She totally deserves it! Glad FIRST is recognizing her for all the hard work she's done. <3

Congratulations to 604, 3256 and 2761.
After watching your alliance on the webcast, I know that if you guys team up in Atlanta, you will be a very strong alliance.
Congratulations to 3256 for the Rookie All-Star. You guys deserve it!
Congratulations to 604 for the Chairman's Award. You guys were a big help to us last year, and from all of the things I have heard about you guys, the judges made the right choice.

I really enjoyed this Wed-Thu setup, It was great to watch robots actually compete for something on a Thursday (we're going to see more of that in two weeks). Thanks to the webcast and the exclusivity of the time arrangement, the entire FIRST community as a whole had an opportunity to watch some wonderful robots in action. And all the teams there sure didn't disappoint. All of the teams should be proud of themselves, they went through an awkward situation, but showed how great FIRST Teams/Robots/Mentors etc. are in the Sacramento area.

on a side note; i LOVED the webcast, great stream, great quality, those NASA guys sure know how to get a great quality stream up and broadcasting.

the quality of the cameraman is debatable though

Congrats to our brother (why does it always have to be sister?) team, 2761 and the rest of the red alliance. It's nice to see a young team that 1671 and 1323 worked together to start make it to the top and qualify for nationals their first two years as a part of FIRST. I was hoping to see a Central Valley Robotics showdown with 1323 and 2761 in the finals, but glad to see one of them be on an alliance that made it through the end. It's too bad we couldn't make it up there to join you guys in SAC this week.

Awesome regional everyone! Thanks to all the teams that really stepped up the competition today, the finals were fantastic! I didn't think 604 and company could pull out that final match with no hangers, but they found a way! For those of you who weren't watching, 3256 had by far the best defensive move of the regional during Final match 4, defending the blue tower while not getting any penalties. An impressive rookie for sure! 3256 had their act together, be looking out for them next year!

By the way, the regional was Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday because UC Davis already had an event scheduled at the pavilion for Friday, so it was either tues-thurs or sat-mon

[Chickenonastick]

That was a thrilling tourney. A shout out to 604 and 2761 for being the best alliance members a rookie team could ever have.
