A huge CONGRATULATIONS to our students on the robotics team, and a huge THANK YOU to all of you who showed up to cheer us on!
Quick recap:
- Finished qualification matches ranked #9 out of 65
- Picked by the #1 team to be a teammate for the Elimination rounds (tournament)
- Finished as SEMI-FINALISTS
- Given the INDUSTRIAL DESIGN award, which “celebrates form and function in an efficiently designed machine that effectively addresses the game challenge.” Ours was the ONLY robot at the whole competition that could accomplish ALL the tasks: Shooting automatically, climbing to the top of the tower, and placing disks in the goal atop the pyramid.
Our team feels really good about our performance, especially knowing that we carried more of the weight of our Alliance through the Elimination rounds. We are looking forward to our next regional competition in Las Vegas, April 5-6. We hope to get a few things dialed in over the next two weeks and be a formidable opponent!
