I believe CT lays claim to 155 (they're from Berlin), though they do compete in MA. They are a good team though. Your other MA selections are all very good teams as well.

Re: Best Team by State

I think what makes it hard in some ways to determine which team is the "best" from a state is because each teams looks up to another team. It is hard to name yourself as the best when you look up to another team! Just one reason why I love FIRST!

Don't be so humble as to leave your team out.

342 had a bit of a fall out this year. Their robot was not up to their usual standards, but I can understand a off year, and I expect them to back really soon.

1319 is another team I'd offer second place to, but once again, they had a falling out this year, as their performance was as stellar as I'm used to seeing from them. But, I'm also sure that next year, they'll be back with style.

But I wouldn't mind giving the second spot to team 2815. In '09, your rookie year, you went first pick of the first seed, and even this year, first pick of the second seed, and both times, you guys seemed to have carried the alliance through the elims. I can't wait for you guys to catch lady luck and take Palmetto, and I know that day isn't that far in the future. (And I know that this year, 1398 and 2815 collaborated closely. So, I guess 2815 and 1398 are kind of in the same slot.)

Going to have to go in a different direction. Historically i'd have to say 343 and 1319 top the list. 342 Historically always has very strong robots but 2010 just wasn't their year, happens to all teams. 1102 does have decent showings at Palmetto year in and year out but I wouldn't put them among the states greatest teams, but i'd give them a comfortable #5 spot.

2815 will soon be at the top of the list given their rookie and rookie+1 showings. So currently i'd have to put my list as

343
1319
342
2815
1102

If 2815 has another great showing at Palmetto next year the list for me easily becomes...

343
2815
1319
342
1102

These lists are for historical best teams in SC. The only reason I don't have 2815 at #2 now is just because they've only been in FRC for 2 years.

I have to agree with this, I've always been a huge buzz fan.

The Rhode Rebels DO deserve credit for their rookie performance this year. I knew their FTC team when they were just starting out a few years ago...and they really have got their act together.

Re: Best Team by State

I'm making the case for 79 in FL.

Many regional wins,
Multiple chairmans,
Lots of Engineering Inspiration,
And hosting TNT.

Although they have not seemed to do as well at Championships as PINK I think it all balances out....

Florida has a lot of good teams, but 79 gets it.

Re: Best Team by State

The South Carolina Top 10

Average Awards Per Year Rank
1319
343
342
2815
1398
1102
281
1539
1758
1051

All Other Awards 1 Point
Finalists 1.5 Points
Regional Win 2 Points
WC Finalist 2 Points
Engineering Inspiration 2 Points
Chairmans 4 Points

If the above point system is applied there is a lead change.
343
1319
342
2815
1398
1102
281
1539
1758
1051

Interesting Side fact about 1319 since it is my team. We are currently the only team in SC that has a chance to win every award given out by first due to our stellar rookie year.

If you are talking strictly competing on the field I would have to go 1124 for CT. With the exception of the Newton finals in 2009 they have consistently bested us head to head since we won the CT regional together in 2006. Also to be quite frank about it 177 has never been a first event of the season type of team. We usually need one regional under our belts to get warmed up and get things right.

Re: Best Team by State

I'm going to take a stab at Texas.

My top 10 teams are:
148
624
704
118
57
1429
1477
231
418
922

I've only been in FIRST for two years and these teams always stand out to me every year. I feel 704 gets overlooked a lot because they had not won a regional until last year. (correct me if I am wrong please) Looking over their years, they have consistently made the elims every year at Lone Star. My team was shocked that they were still around when we picked them last year and I believe if it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have won.

Florida has a lot of good teams, but 79 gets it.
According to the FIRST database, 79 has 2 regional wins, 233 has 8. 79 has 5 regional chairman's, 233 has 2. 79 has 1 engineering inspiration, 233 has 2. In total awards since 2001, 79 has 27, 233 has 48. In Championship awards since 2001, 79 has 3 and 233 has 10.

I love team 79, I think they're awesome...but the stats clearly show that Florida is Pink's state.

I would ask for Florida to take a vote on best team, but my fear of "Hanging Chad" in close decisions has not fully subsided.


Sorry Floridians, I just couldn't resist.
