Here's an interesting flip. I am a middle school student on my team, and although I wanted to be a driver, I decided not to for two main reasons - 1. it would seem awkward having a middle schooler driving a high school robotics team's robot and 2. I am going to have 4 more years on the team AS A HIGHSCHOOLER and in that time I have a good chance of being a driver.

I personally think that if a middle school student wants to be the driver then they are pushing their privilege too far. They are lucky to be on the team they are on, and most likely their team membership would be cut much faster than a highschoolers if they did something wrong. With all this said, my vote would have to go for Middle school students are allowed to be on the team, but not to be the driver.

I completely agree!
