Saturday, Day Three: Finale of Qualifications, Advent of Finals, Awards CeremonyQualification Matches were over, and alliances for the elimination rounds were chosen before lunch. The second seed, Team 341, Miss Daisy, chose us, MOE 365, and Team Chuck 84, to create an alliance. We raced around the track and hurdled Trackballs over the overpass to reach the finals against the number one seed, Cybersonics, Technology Team 103, who were allied with Lansdale Catholic Robotics, Team 272, and Technowizards, Team 809.
The final rounds were very close. We lost the first match due to three penalties against our alliance. We thought the second match was a tie at first, without counting penalties. In the end there were no penalties, and we won the match by two points from a ball crossing our finish line dropped by Miss Daisy, winning us the match. In the very final match, everyone in the stadium was filled with spirit, cheering on both alliances, seeing who would win the last match of the finals. In the end, after a very exciting competition, with one penalty on each alliance, our alliance won 88 to 70! |
