2008 BAYOU REGIONAL COMPETITION
Team 2182 competed for the second year in a row at the Bayou Regional Competition in New Orleans,
LA. The robot that we designed and built this year was a fast hurdler bot. A picture of our robot hurdling the goal is
found to the right. During qualifiers we were on 7 winning alliances out of the 9 games that we played which was good enough
to finish 5th after qualification rounds. We were the team captain for the 4th elimination round alliance, and chose team 230
and 536 as our alliance partners. We were eliminated during the second match of quarterfinal 2. The following chart courtesy
of the
Blue Alliance website
shows the games that we participated in and their corresponding scores.
