The teams that are awarded these will be the lucky few. The trophies are beautiful, 118. You will have to keep us posted as to who garnered what.

How do most teams do the team to team awards?
we were planning on having some for our team at palmetto, but we didn't know we were going to have a team until about November, and we just didn't have enough time to get it together.

Thanks to all the teams who came by to admire the awards, they really did come out great. The choices certainly weren't easy with all the great robots and I developed a new level respect for what the judges have to go through at an event like Championships.

We gave the Powerhouse Award to HOT 67 for their amazing run this entire season. They really were unbeatable. We gave the Engineering Excellence Award to the Holy Cows 1538 who had and amazingly clean and elegantly designed robot. The quality was unmatched, and facing them in the semi-finals only enforced this decision. We gave team RUSH 27 the Supreme Team award after being absolutely blown away by their team structure, outreach, and success on & off the field. They really do have the total package going for them. The Advance Technology award was given to HAMMOND 71 who incorporated fans into their crab module. Coming from a team who builds crab, this innovative design feature surprised and impressed us.

Congrats to these teams, and I hope you find a nice spot to show off the trophies.

This was by far the coolest trophy we've got from any team, ever. We proudly display this award with all of our other FIRST trophies. It's gotten quiet a few looks from the teachers and school administration.

Nice work 118!
