Tom Dempsey

At our first design meeting last weekend, after learning the rules for this year’s FRC competition, we (that would be Team 53*) debated the pros and cons of using a piston or a hammer as the primary ball shooter. The hammer idea had only one backer, but we’re still discussing the options. And then it occured to me, that, of course, no one knows the Tom Dempsey story. That probably includes most of the mentors. Sigh. I’m old. And wise.
