In a true David vs. Goliath story, and in our second year participating in the four-legged league, we won the World Championships. Linking to a great CNN.com piece that just ran today, but our victory is a couple of weeks old.

Our ride was pretty amazing: 90-hour weeks holed up in the lab for six weeks before competition, fuel from Dunkin Donuts, and 5-AM dance sessions of the Hold Steady, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!, and our favorite, the Lion King Soundtrack.

We lost early in the tournament but fixed a monstrous python bug — one two-spaced tab between our robot dogs completely sucking and being completely kick-ass. But we rolled to beat the Microsoft Hellhounds (Microsoft!!), the illustrious two-time champion the GermanTeam in the quarterfinals, Carnegie Mellon in the Semis (only the best Computer Science program in the world), and finally, took on the reigning World Champs, the NUbots from Australia, who literally beat every team last year by five goals.

Being Team Captain, this was the best experience of my life. Working on an insanely hard, really big project with a bunch of dedicated, awesome ‘teammates’. All the while realizing that we were, ridiculously, teaching robot dogs how to play soccer.
