Coffee With Coaches! - Aaron Studham | Drive Coach of Team 1768 | EP 5

This episode features Aaron Studham, Drive Coach and current 1768 mentor, along with someone who's been featured on Ellen for having the world's largest mohawk!. Team 1768 has been a team who, since 2022, has been moving from a solid team in New England to a team that wins multiple blue banners a year, and is performing better and better at Worlds every year! This year, they managed to not only win the Hopper Division, but they did so as the Alliance 1 Captain, and with a very unique strategy that we break down in this video, along with how they managed to improve so much in such a short period of time!
