Rutgers J&J MidAtlantic- THE Regional to End the Season With

Wayne_C · March 30, 2003, 8:03am

Jersey Regional- New Venue- New Teams- Major Competition

Look for the “Orange Hawaiian Sea” of team 25 and sit with us- especially you rookies!! Sign the giant banner with the other teams.

Giveaways- buttons- crazy cheering- robots going crazy

The pits will be a little tight so the stands are the place to be. Bring your friends because this place can seat them.

You’ve been watching all season and seen the rest. Now it’s time to see the best. Rutgers is the place to be Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

:yikes:

(PS- My lack of enthusiasm should in no way prevent you from attending- be there!!!)

On saturday bring the whole family! We want to prove that FIRST is THE competition these days, and we want to FILL THE RAC.

This will be the one to see, finally the world can see team 293 in action! I can’t wait to see the amazing robots at Rutgers, some of the best teams are here. It’s gonna be an awsome event to watch!!

We will be there and it will be awesome. it is our third comp and we do better each time in AZ we made it to the semis and in Philly we made it to the finals and you can bet on where we intend to place this time. we have also won an award each time too so watch out. I personally have my sights set on the sportsmanship award.

Congrats to the Philly winners, but we’ve fixed the last little glitch in our autonomous program, so be ready for a X-WAVE of boxes in 3.5 seconds! This regional is going to be spectacular!

the RAC better be air conditioned!!! @ Philly, they had NO air moving at all and it was horribly hot, and horribly humid!!! Kudo’s to all the mascots there, they were ready to die!!!

HEHE now that you guys have seen auton #4 which took about 3 seconds to get to you in low gear you just wait to see how fast it gets to you in high gear. with out that you guys would have killed us in the finals.

the stadium is HUGE- the pits area is less huge. Hey, this is what we all have been asking for for years at RU. I doubt it can be topped.

Hey you East Coast guys. Better Watch out cause the WRRF is sending a strong contingent to Houston for the big show down. I think the midwest dominance of the FIRST nationals is coming to an end very soon.

I don’t know Alan… we have some killer bots out here this year. I guess we need to meet up in Houston and check each other’s machines out.

Are the Foothills guys coming out?

WC:cool:

Sorry no Foothill team this year - I mentored the Friday Rookie All Star team at SVR - They did darn well - Ended up seeded 14th - this with darn little help
the highest seeds we played with ended up 11th and 13th! We won every match where we had a working ally. We got picked as third ally for the 12th? seeded team so the 7th alliance was made of 10,13,and 14. Our first elimination match was against the eventual SVR champs, and for a while it looked like we might have taken the first of two. Very exciting. Hope to see the raiders in action. I’ll be a volunteer for FIRST, so I am not quite sure where I’ll be working. Definitely I’ll come by the pits, and if you guys are having a 2000 Nat Champ party - I’ll be there. Team 232 has sort of migrated into team 814 - not sure if they are coming out.
