BOTBALL---FIRST PLACE OVERALL


Here are members of the Botball Team (minus Justin Mosher) that recently did an amazing job at the Regional Botball competition in Edwardsville, Illinois. The Overall Award was a compilation of scores from the Seeding Rounds, Documentation/Presentation, and the Double Elimination Tournament. The team scored 1st or 2nd in each category, and scored one of the best Seeding Round Score in the Nation. Interestingly enough, this years competition involves the robot rescuing rubber duckies and frogs from oil slicks (very "current events" appropriate, although the theme was determined months and months ago.)

Congratulations!

The Global Conference on Educational Robotics (during which the International Competition will occur) is July 7-11, also in Edwardsville, Illinois (much closer than last year's competition in Hawaii.) The team is busy programming and strategizing to dominate that event!
