pic: The NUTRONs 4 Banner Season



Team 125 has had an incredible 2014 season. We competed in 4 district events, the last 3 coming back-to-back-to-back. The team managed to win all 3 of these events! The last one coming with a female rookie drive crew.

To cap off the pre-championship season, we took home our first ever Chairman’s Award!

I’m extremely proud of our team and wanted to share our accomplishments with the CD community!

What can I say … wow, simply wow … congratulations for such an amazing season! I wish you guys luck in St-Louis!

What a season! 125 sure seemed to enjoy the change to Districts in NE! Congrats on everything guys, see you in Boston!

Is this some kind of record? What are the records for most blue banners or regional/district wins per season?

Great job, Awesome season!
Look forward to seeing Nutrons in St Louis.

469 also had 4 last year including their win at the District Championship.

There are a handful of 5 banner seasons. 1114 did it in 2012.

Congrats to 125. That’s quite an accomplishment.

359 won three regionals and a regional chairmans in 2010.

Thanks for all the kind words. It’s been a wild, crazy three weeks. Sometime this week or after the season I’ll probably post a whitepaper of some sorts with all of our Chairman’s stuff (essay, binder, presentation script, video, etc…)

469 got 5 Robot Win Banners in 2013:
Winner -Detroit District
Winner - Troy District
Winner - Bedford District
Winner - Michigan State Championship
Winner - Archimedes Division

Can’t forget 67 getting 6 in 2009.

Could you elaborate a bit more on that?

3x District Wins. Cass Tech, Lansing, Troy.
1x State Champs win
1x Division Win
1x Champs Win

For future reference, frclinks.com is an awesome tool. frclinks.com/tba/67/2009 will pull the above.

Wow! Thanks!

Congrats to you and your entire team. You guys continue to raise the bar. The chairman’s win is especially cool. I look forward to seeing you guys in st Louis!

Congratulations NUTRONs on your Chairman’s win. The other blue banners are just the icing on the cake.

Personally I liked when they won both World Champs AND The Chairman’s Award in 2005.

Remember that 125 still has 2 events left.

Here are the records per year through the 3 alliance era.

2013 - 469 - 5
2012 - 16, 1114 - 5
2011 - 1114, 254, 111, 359 - 4
2010 - 1114 - 5
2009 - 217, 67 - 6
2008 - 1114 - 6
2007 - 190 - 4
2006 - 217, 1114, 25, 111 - 4
2005 - 67 - 6

The other 6 blue banner seasons not already mentioned broke down as:

217 in 2009 (5 events):
Cass Tech District: Winner
Troy District: Winner, Chairman’s Award
Michigan State Championship: Winner, Chairman’s Award
Championship: Division Winner

1114 in 2008 (4 events):
Waterloo: Winner, Chairman’s Award
Midwest: Winner
Toronto: Winner
Championship: Division Winner, Winner

67 in 2005 (4 events):
Buckeye: Winner
Great Lakes: Winner
West Michigan: Chairman’s Award
Championship: Division Winner, Winner, Chairman’s Award.

Wow! Great job guys, can’t wait to compete with you next week!

And also a great job to 558 and 3467 with 3 blue banners.

Thanks for the shoutout. While I can’t speak for 558 (but I’m sure the same holds true) 125 has been an amazing role model for teams in the Northeast. Aside from always being ready to help teams and host events they have made the finals at 10 of the last 11 regionals/districts they have attended! A record like that is for the elite teams! It also looks like they hold the record for the most banners before District Champs or Champs only matched by the dominate 1114 Overdrive performance.

Congratulations 125 you guys earned it! But I still think you are crazy! :wink:

I would think that 125 at least has the most Blue Banners in 3 weeks record! That is crazy stuff, they must be exhausted!

Congrats to a fantastic team, so well deserved!
