Re: Where did you get the name for your robot?
The main sponsor of the Garnet Squadron is the University of South Carolina Engineering School and in kind the university is known for when we play football the school plays Sandstorm to amp the crowd up for kickoffs. It's actually a signature song at Carolina and not only that it's popular to hear at FRC Regionals obviously. We've named our robots for the last two seasons Sandstorm I & II respectively (There was even a Sandstorm 0 during our pre-rookie season). Whether or not we continue that naming convention this year will be decided by our students come January.
