Editing Team numbers (section)

==2000==
[[2000]] team numbers ranged from [[frc337|337]] to [[frc491|491]]. Additionally in 2000 FIRST assigned [https://web.archive.org/web/20000817031654/http://www.usfirst.org:80/teampages.html negative team numbers] to older teams that had competed before 1998 but not in 1998 when they would have received permanent team numbers. This list was seemingly compiled from a variety of older team lists, leading to some teams being given multiple team numbers, some teams from presumed preliminary lists that never officially competed being assigned negative team numbers, and teams that only competed in [[1995]] not receiving negative team numbers at all, presumably because a 1995 list was not available to work off of. For these special cases and a handful of others, the FRC archive refers to these 1995 only teams with a team number corresponding to their alphabetized position on the 1995 team list, as the official 1995 numbering list as well as other pre-1997 lists are unknown.
