Our team attended the 2020 NorCal championships, although we had lots of fun competing at a higher level of competition than we usually do, we didn't win any awards and weren't part of a semifinal alliance. It was a great opportunity to learn from other teams, seeing as it was our first year there, and we can't wait to come back next year with a better understanding of the competition.
