We ended the tournament with our robot in 6th place, although our top score was tied for second. Three way tie for first, three way tie for second! Placing is determine by subsequent scores and our third run was thrown off by a broken model. But super excited to be in the top 10!!! Then started the On The Spot challenge... brand new mat and models...three team alliances... 4 hours to build and program... not enough practice tables!! For perspective, we were in first with 10 points 😆

Whew! It's been a whirlwind here in Cali!! Our first run was ishy but our second run was AWESOME! We hit 530 and are in third. Judging was great and we are loving meeting teams from all over. And lunch in the California sunshine is pretty great too.

The gang is back together!! Some of us traveled yesterday morning and those of us here checked out the tidepools. Then it was move in time! The booth is up, the bot is unpacked, and after an early breakfast we are heading in to get some practice. The tables are actually built differently so we will have to do some adjusting.

More exploring while the rest of the team heads our way! Drove by the convention center, took a boat ride, and on to the Queen Mary. Then we met up with Mr. D this evening!

Made it! Thank you Delta for safely delivering bot, attachments, prototype, luggage, and US! We checked out a few LA landmarks and even rode a real incline... wish Cinci had kept ours!!
