We submitted 2 students, both excellent essays...we are very happy with how they turned out after being typed up thursday night.

We submitted one entry last night for a unique and deserving student. I hope he gets the recognition he deserves for it.

No.

We wrote essays, but couldn't submit them on time. Our students were in school (without internet access) when the deadline past. I'd say the problem was FIRST didn't have time to roll-out the award properly. There should have been a method available for mentors to submit this award.

We managed to submit for our two seniors.

This was actually the only award that we let our mentors work on. We decided that because it is an award for the students, the students should not be involved in the decision. I was able to submit right before the deadline.

Our team was able to submit 1 entry but would have liked time to do another.
With build season ending and our team entering a week 1 and 2 regional away from home, it was quite the challenge to even get 1 in.

However, I commend FIRST for doing this and like the changes/improvements/expectations that are occuring with FRC awards.
I never understood why the WF and CA in the past had to be submitted at the same regional before. I'm glad the flexibility on where we want to enter awards is there now.

We did one submission. Originally, we had decided that we didn't have the time to do a team collaboration on it, so we weren't going to, but when I told the other captain about it, she said "No, they deserve it, I'll write it tonight."
