Re: 2011 West Michigan District

67 can't wait to up the competition at West Michigan after a quarterfinal finish plagued with robot issues at Kettering!

A quick look at 67's FIRST page reveals that despite going to the West Michigan Regional for seven years, from 2001 to 2007, the HOT Team has never won it. This is despite winning numerous regional banners and a world championship in that time span. Now, with the new district system, 67 returns to West Michigan, historically its toughest venue.

Then again, I won't be there. This whole "being an alumnus" thing is a sad development.

Re: 2011 West Michigan District

I'm very excited! I would agree, West Michigan is one of the most competitive districts, but that's what makes it fun

I can bet there are going to be very skillful alliances formed this year...

Re: 2011 West Michigan District

1189 is looking forward to our first appearance at West MI! We haven't competed recently with many of the teams there, so it will really be different for us (ESPECIALLY since our robot drives consistently this year ).

I don't know what caused the delay for the week 1 events, but Waterford went very smoothly until the end of the day on Friday. Several practices were run on Thursday night, and I'd estimate that we were on time +/- 15 minutes for the rest of the event. Hopefully the rest of the events will go just as well.
