Cleveland Regional - Mar 28

rsswebmaster@thecatattack.org (PatrickP) — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 16:17:58 -0400

The Cleveland Regional was just as exciting as Pittsburgh. On Thursday, we fixed Kick Kat's chain, and a few other issues from Pittsburgh, as well as adding a ball cam video feed. Friday we started out good, and we were flipped on our side, and things started to go downhill. we then died on the field three times before the day ended. On Saturday we fixed our dying issues, and jumped up to 8th seed before the seeding matches were over. We became the 4th alliance, but were knocked out in the quarter finals

rsswebmaster@thecatattack.org (PatrickP) — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 10:27:12 -0400

Not quite as good as day one, we dropped to the 6th seed, and had numerous chain issues, which killed us, along with an alliance partners battery issues, in the quarter finals.

we have not placed this high since 2003, and never done this well in our first competition!
