The final results of the MATE 2010 ROV Competition are in - and the NSCC ROV team finished 12th in a strong international field of 28 competitors in the Explorer Class. If the tether hadn't broken in the first trial, they would likely have done even better. As it was, they beat out the likes of MIT, Dalhousie, and Moscow State University. Well played fellows - we are proud of you all!
