DEWBOT VIII Mid-Atlantic Region Championship
From DEW Robotics
Together with Alliance partners Teams 341 (Miss Daisy, Alliance Captain) and 25 (Raider Robotix), Team 1640 won the Mid-Atlantic Robotics (MAR) FRC Regional Championship at Temple University in Philadelphia. Great work by the whole team. This win qualifies us for the Championships in St. Louis.
Our qualification match record of 4-7-1 was underwhelming, as was our final ranking of 43 in a field of 53.
But we worked with 341 and 25 starting Thurday evening on the triple balance and made this our calling card during eliminations (as the 1st alliance). Our first quarterfinal match featured the very first triple balance at a MAR event. We went on to triple balance 5 times in 6 elimination matches.
