2006-2007 Competition Results Posted: October 22, 2007
Pittsburgh Regional: The Robocats finished preliminary rounds in 13th place (of 35 teams)
and were selected by team 314 for Finals on Saturday. Team 2010 from Champion completed the alliance which was eliminated in quarterfinals.
Buckeye Regional: The Robocats captured the Regional Championship at the Buckeye Regional, along with teams #291 (the CIA from Erie, PA) and #48 (Warren G. Harding's Delphi E.L.I.T.E. team)! By winning the Buckeye Regional the Robocats qualified for the World Championships!
The Robocats also captured the Spirit Award and wish to thank all of their supporters (over 75) who attended the Buckeye Regional. It was also wonderful to have State Senator Capri Cafaro visit us in Cleveland.
Greater Toronto Regional: The Robocats were picked in the first round by the seventh alliance captain, team #1006, and in the second round, the alliance picked up #48 (Delphi E.L.I.T.E.).
Just like Cleveland, we lost the first round; however, won the next two games to advance to the semi-finals. After winning the first semi-final, we started to have problems. The forks on our elevator got bent up, our partner's ramp did not deploy properly, and a there was a blown tread to deal with. But, everyone had fun, and we hope to go back again soon.
Nationals: The Robocats performed well in Atlanta, but unfortunatley did not make it to finals. The team had a stong showing and posted one of the highest scores of the day on Friday. It was wonderful to be able to meet and compete with over 325 of the best F.I.R.S.T. teams from around the world and the team is very grateful to all of our supporters who made financial donations to ensure that we could attend the Championship after qualifying by winning the Buckeye Regional.
