I did not mention my current team or any team, just a region.

Wow, that level of rude is not something I usually expect on Chief Delphi let alone from a mentor.

2. 329 Regional Finalist in 2012. EI winners in 2012, 2014, and 2015 and Regional winners in 2013, and 2014.
3. 694 Regional Finalists in 2015, winners in 2013, and chairmans award winners in 2012.
4. 1796 - Regional Winners in 2012, 2013, and 2015 along with multiple imagery awards.
5. 2869 - Regional Winners in 2016, and 2017.

I'm going to casually add 5254 to this list, because they're great. Also 340 if only for the impressive amount of Blue Banners they've received recently, and possibly 3171 for their LI wins in 2013 & 15 (and their great performance on our alliance in NYC last year).

My stab at Colorado will include only three, because they are consistently the best. There are other teams that are up and coming (the High Fives come to mind), and others with a history of consistency and tradition (159 and 662 particularly), but these three top my list.

2996, Cougars Gone Wired
1619, Up-A-Creek
4499, the Highlanders

I was going to respond to this for Colorado, but 100% agree with what you said way back in February, save for one thing... I think 1339 should be on that list as well, after watching the regional this weekend.

159 has a very interesting cycle of progressively getting better, doing really well, doing not so well, and then repeating that. I think the biggest thing we could do better is transfer knowledge from outgoing seniors to the younger team members before the end of the season. I know that's something my senior class was guilty of not doing, and it definitely hurt the team the following year.

Agreed. 1339 has done a good job of building effective robots over the last few years, and they deserve a spot on that list.

1339 was one of the best teams that we have had the pleasure of working with at Colorado. They have always delivered a fantastic robot and that has become evident this year. They definitely deserve to be on the top 5 for Colorado.

Ventura 2016 gets added to 973's list.

I was counting 2012 to 2015 seasons, during which 971 had 4 regional wins / 1 finalist and 973 had 3 regional wins / 3 finalists. I'm not sure how I came up with 2 wins for 973. Counting is hard...

About 973 over 971 or vice versa: I sorted mainly based on stats because otherwise I'd be even more skewed towards teams I've seen more, and teams that did better in 2014/2015. Both are really, really good and the list could definitely go either way. CA has a lot of great teams, which always makes these lists fun but difficult.

Texas:

1. 118 - They did pretty well last year I think (and every year for that matter).
2. 148 - Consistently one of the best robots in FRC.
3. 624 - A Texas powerhouse that gets better every year.
4. 1477 - Back to back Einstein appearances in 2013 and 2014.
5. 1296 - They just keep getting better and better.

Along a lot of other great Missouri teams out there.

I would switch 1296 with 3310. While I agree with you that 1296 is getting better and better, 3310 has 4 regional wins while 1296 only has 1 in the last 4 years.

4. 1676
5. 11

However, it's a close race, especially between ranks 4 and 9. Data taken from this Google Doc created by Antonio Papa.

1640 should be on that list.
