It is interesting to see the sea of yellow robots (made up of older MINDSTORMS RCX based robots) has a sizable numbers of grey (the newer MINDSTORMS NXT based robots) amongst it now.
But why can't the lego bots win the soccer anymore?
Those kids winning the soccer are pretty hardcore robotics kids who are probably the top kids (academically in science / maths) in the country.
LEGO robots still do very well at State and Regional level.
