GSR Match 70 1831 Falls

2013 FIRST Robotics BAE Systems Granite State Regional
Ultimate Ascent
Match 70
Team 1831, The Screaming Eagles, in the best Robot Fall of the season so far.
They had almost reached the 3rd level and tried to dump their colored Frisbees in their pyramid goal...it was all downhill from there. Right down to the buzzer.

I got really lucky in that I happened to catch the only two falls all weekend.

Blue Alliance wins 72 - 37.

I was originally trying to catch Team 61 Blackstone Valley Robotics with their totally insane climb method. (I mean it, you gasp every time) Unfortunately, due to the fact that they played a little defense, they weren't able to perform their acrobatics because they usually needed to align their robot perfectly for it to perform its stunt.

This match also features CHAOS, team 131, with another outstanding robot, who were upset in the quarter finals but went on to win the far more significant Chairman's award.

Then there is Team 175 Buzz, who did the upsetting with 61 and Team 172 Northern Force all the way until they lost in the Finals to Team 610 The Coyotes from Toronto, 3609 The Duct Tape Bandits and 4124 Integration By Parts.
