These guys were consistently scoring with and competing against some of the best high goal robots in the world and managed to play to their level and then some. Utterly impressive for a low goal + hang strategy.

Watching them drive in eliminations was like watching art. It was just phenomenal how consistently aware and smooth their drivers were.

Prior to their transition to high goal shooters, both 319 and 1058 in NE had great low goal robots.

Our bad.

Even though they had a shooter mounted all season, 319 was probably one of the top low goal machines in New England this year.

For pure low goals 238 was a beast.

When I think of low goal robots, I think of 1418, 3683, and 1011. All were really good this year.

I'll add another to the 1058 bucket. As a sole low goaler prior to district champs they were able to shovel boulders into the low goal with ease, and secure the climb.

I saw their strength in two areas, the obvious being the points put on the board from their defense crosses, boulders scored, and those precious climb points. The second being what that does for the alliance on a psychological level. The consistency and enthusiastic-yet-calm demeaned that 1058 played with meant that many team played their best when on the field beside 1058.
