Hi all! Here are today’s 3 Questions…

  1. Who was the first team to win more than one national championship?

  2. Who was the first president to invite a winning FIRST team to the White House?

  3. Who was the only team with the ability to score all 9 tubes in 1997. (Hint: They did it during practice rounds in NJ)

1: Beatty

  1. Team 71, Beatty
  2. George H.W. Bush
  3. Johnson & Johnson Professional, Inc. & Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High Sch – The current team # 88

  1. 71, Beatty & Hammond, 1997, 2001, 2002

  2. George Bush

  3. There were many teams that had the ability, some in the time limit and some not. I’m going to guess Nypro & Clinton (126) is the team that you are referring to.

Having studied just about every team in 97 with Gael Force Strategy, I truely dont believe there were any teams other than the team I am thinking of who could do it, and who actually did do it in practice rounds. (part of the reason I gave the hint) I would love to know any other teams who did, so let me know!

Today’s Answers…

  1. Beatty and Hammond High School (Team 71)

  2. George H.W. Bush

  3. As you can see from the picture, team 63 (now 88) TJ² had the ability to hold 9 above the apex of the goal, and did so during the practice rounds of the NJ Regional.

Today’s winner is Karthik! Good Job!

The tradition of #3 dies in either '97 or '98 Ibelieve, I know I was on the Technokats in’98 and we didn’t get to go.

Correction…

Answer #1 is Beatty and Hammond high schools, #71… as a graduate of one of the other three schools (out of four), I felt the need to stick up for myself. :slight_smile:
