FIRST Tech Challenge Oregon:

We had a very nice official start to the FIRST Tech Challenge League Meet Season this past week.  Our thanks to our Volunteers and Mentors for making it happen.

 Although the points and the rankings only tell part of the story, we have posted them for you to see. I know some teams are looking forward to begin data crunching for competitive analysis scouting.  This is why I have included non-league teams on this email. Non-League teams will competing with League teams in the Super-Qualifiers.

ORTOP is posting the results in Google Sheets linked to the ORTOP website

  • There is an Overview - Top Scores from individual matches, #1 Ranked team from each League and Cumulative Rankings for each individual League.
  • There are also separate League folders with Rosters, Matches and League Rankings
  • Be sure to look at the tabs at the bottom of each sheet.
Making  Sense of Ranking Sheets
For more information about Qualifying Points and Ranking Points - Go to FTC Game Manual 1 - Pages 10 & 17. 
League Teams carry forward their best 10 of 15 matches (5 per meet)  to the League Qualifying Tournament.   The 10 best matches establishes the team's  League Ranking at the beginning of the League QT.  Best matches are those with wins, followed by those with ties, followed by losses and their corresponding ranking points. The 5 matches played at the League QT are added to the League Ranking.


It is important for League teams to participate in as many League Meets as possible to accumulate Quality Points and Ranking Points.


How do you find the Results? EASY! Go to the ORTOP webpage for FIRST Tech Challenge - www.ortop.org/ftc   ----- In the right column is the Results link.

Our wishes for a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving Holiday!

Regards,
Cathy Swider
