Programming PAdawans State

Well, as you can tell we didn't add any new pasts as we got ready for state.
We really focused on our programming, because this was our weakest area.
We were tryting to run two or three missions at a time every time we left base and it just wasn't working for us. 
The night before state we stayed in a hotel and set up our board and tried to work out our programs for hours, but when it came down to the competition, we just weren't that successful.
In fact, we didn't ge the lowest score, but we almost did.  One of our runs on the board at state was only a 65, that made us pretty sad, but state is still a fun expereince no matter what.
We have noticed that the winners the last two years have not been from school programs.  The winners were Pi Pod, a home school team, and the Ladybugs, a girl scout troop.  What is it about these teams that make it easier for them to compete?  Something to think about as we move forward.
