Wow, 6 redesigns in 3 seasons? I'd be interested in seeing the progression that led to this.
I haven't done a lot of deep digging on the site but it seems like there's a whole lot of content. It seems in general to be a nice simple design - nothing fancy, but plenty of content. However, one major problem I see is navigation overload. There are so many links, all the same size, that it seems kind of overwhelming. I'd consider taking out some of the lower-level navigation links: maybe make a Resources page and a Links page that can both be second-level pages within Main. That'd mean you could put more description around the links. Think about who's going to be reading the page: if it's a FIRST student they'll likely already know about most of the sites listed in your Links box, but if it's someone new to FIRST words like "Chiefdelphi" and "SCRRF" have no significance and might go well with an explanatory sentence or two.
Also, is there any particular reason you decided to use a fixed-width layout?
