Credit for that can go to the entire group of competing teams - this was probably one of the more competitive events of the year. Plenty of exciting, high-scoring, and close matches in the elimination rounds.

See that robot/team on the right in the pic above? They are going to ball in St. Louis. Just sayin'. See that robot/team on the left? They are outstanding in all support roles - AND they use the Kinect with success. That one in the center? Eh.

Thanks to Wisconsin Regional webcast provider, 5NINES (www.5nines.com), I've gotten a hold of the actual Saturday webcast feed video, and have posted some new videos of the above alliance's elimination round matches.

Talk about a gauntlet - great job by all opponents!

Once again, congrats guys! That was one hell of an amazing showing in the finals putting the back-to-back 98s on the board against us. We're studying that brilliant ball control strategy to a T for Queen City this weekend. If you're looking to replicate that performance, we'll be more than happy to do our best Wave impression for you.

Thanks!

I think there will be numerous teams at Cincy attempting to demonstrate their "best Wave impressions"...including us! I think the elimination rounds are going to be very exciting - teams are going to bring their "A" games.

I'm really glad you guys signed up - another very high quality team joining the fray in Queen City. I can't wait to get started! Good luck to all!
