In watching the video we have of the Lone star regional, we keep noticing how incredible you each played in the playoffs. In every match in every round, no matter what strategy we used - 364 & 437 executed your parts of the strategy flawlessly everytime. I don’t remember seven straight matches where each team did exactly what they set out to do. Thanks for being such great partners and compensating for our lack of a human player. You deserve the banners and trophies - and we can’t wait to see you each in Orlando. (our team will be 50% bigger in Orlando - 3 students instead of 2!!!)
ALSO - to the teams who supported and in some cases almost adopted our little team, thank you so much.
There were a number of you cheering for us and supporting us, especially the Gila Monsters (#64) with your incredible students and your signs. You are the true inspiration behind FIRST. The fact that our little team could travel all the way from California with no cheering section at all, yet look up to see & hear the support you gave my students made everything worthwhile regardless of how we finished. Thank you all.
We look forward to seeing everyone in Orlando and the Gila Monsters this week in San Jose. This time we will have a cheering section to join yours! 
Safe travels to all,
Jason
