I've noticed more and more rookie teams mentored by either former students that are now college students or relocated mentors. There was a time when one usually dismissed or discounted how successful a rookie team could be (I know it sounds bad) - but thats definitely not the case anymore which is awesome that not only is FIRST growing new teams but growing new successful teams which will stick around for a while.

Thunderchickens in the finals!

I stick by what I said... I want to see Newton win...

Alas, I think an Achimedes vs. Newton final would be amazing to watch! Then again, I underestimated Galileo so I guess Galileo vs. Achimedes would be amazing too! [[ I'm having so much fun watching this online, I can only imagine what it's like to be there, but it's something I look forward and aspire to getting to do! ((my team went last year before I was a member)) ]]

And about the rookies, it really is amazing how many are getting so far, doing so well, and winning so many awards! I can only imagine what kind of rookies we'll have next year!

Wow, I'm really interested to see which team will win SF 2-3! I predict that the winner between Galileo and Newton will be the alliance to win the entire championship

YM 195+968+25, don't you?

[GoSparx]

I dont know. I think our alliance still could have been the best. We won the first match against 25's alliance. Then we lost the 2nd two matches because our shooter wasnt working. We average as a team, team 1126, 55 points a match. And the score of the 2nd match only came down to 30 points and we didn't score at all. But whatever, its all good. We have won 2 divisional championships at Nationals in two years. I am very proud.

I was cheering for you guys. Mainly cause you had 177, but I remember you guys from the past Buckeye and FLRs. I'd say just winning 2 divisionals in a row is cause for major celebration!

So now that the Championship is over, how long 'till next kick off?
