Are those hockey stick handles on the bottom of the shooter?

Like them too, eh?

We're always hoping for an ice game but we make do with what we got. :D

Am I the only one that would like to see googly eyes on the shooter wheels?

Hey great job at the Buckeye Regional. Team 5740's season is all done but we hope that those who were in our regionals can make it to the Championship. Good luck!

For anyone interested, the robot has been named Duncan, in honour of a CEO of a local employer (Bruce Power) that has supported our team for its entire existence (15 years this season). He is retiring this year, and we wanted to commemorate that.
