2014 Wisconsin Regional

[EricLeifermann]

60 teams this year, looking to be one of, if not the toughest regionals this year.

2826 is excited to return again and we are looking to improve on our success from Northern Lights this past weekend and qualify for Championships.

To aid in scouting I have created a google doc of all the teams attending. I am only asking for a picture and/or a video of your robot. If you feel like giving more info feel free to add more info to the document.

4 of the teams on that list may have had a fun day down in Winnebago yesterday (and a DELICIOUS lunch)

Needless to say, I'm really excited. This regional is going to be a heavy hitter. 9 more days!

How was the get together Josh? I really wanted to go! I did end up seeing some video from Arthur, but I wish I would have been there! I hear everybody was doin' awesome. I'll see you in Milwaukee!

The Hilltoppers are looking forward to one of the deepest Regionals in FRC. Wisconsin might not have the most teams, but the Wisconsin Regional draws some of the best. Good luck everyone!

Had a blast at Superior this past weekend.
Big thanks to our finalist partners 3883 and 3313 and a great big congrats to the winning alliance 3692 3018 and 2052.
Making some improvements for Milwaukee and coming to play hard.
If Milw is anything like Duluth, BUILD A RESILIENT ROBOT.
It was a HARD hitting battle up in Duluth.
CYA in Milw.

This regional keeps getting more and more stacked each year. If the eliminations at Lake Superior were exciting, I wonder how epic the finals in Milwaukee will be.

Should be a ton of fun as usual! 537 is looking forward to it.

We have a plethora of regional finalists that will be attending milwaukee and at leasst two engineering inspiration awards winners (MORE Robotics and STEMpunk.) I'm sure the trophey count is a lot higher. I might try compliling a list if I have time tonight.

[Cataclysmatic]

From Central Illinois alone, attending Wisconsin regional will be 3 regional finalists and 1 regional winner.

Should be a fun regional this year...

[Uriah]

We should add a column to the spread sheet for awards won!

Yeah that was awesome Bruce!!! Can't believe our teams ended up against each other in the finals, and knew those last 3 matches were going to be extremely hard fought and could go either way.

See you in a couple weeks!

If anyone has questions about our robot, feel free to ask me.
Can't wait for this year's regional! Should be a lot of fun.

Just a few short days 'til it's time to get our assist on, once again! As always, we're excited to be attending and competing with all the usual suspects. IMO, Wisconsin is one of the most overlooked and underrated regionals in the FRC circuit by the community at large, and this year is even more stacked with some awesome new faces. The Roboteers are looking forward to tossing that big ball around with all of you as the robot revolution takes over Milwaukee, yet again! Best of luck to everyone and we'll see you all in a couple short days!

I noticed our reveal video is already in the doc, but here's a link to one of our matches from CIR to add to the list:

The NCAA basketball tourney 1st and 2nd rounds will be playing Thursday and Saturday next door in the Bradley center. Parking could be difficult for visitors if they come late either day. Make sure you let your friends and family know to arrive early if they want to park close.
