Redondo Union High School and Mira Costa high school stayed together to form team 294, Beach Cities Robotics, now sponsored principally by Northrop Grumman (then it was TRW)
I stand by my original statement. The team histories map out with the current Team 330 as the former Team 61 (as it was known in 1997, but then renumbered Team 82 in 1998 and Team 330 in 1999, before FIRST started to have teams keep the same team number). Hawthorne, Mira Costa and Redondo Union High Schools split off from 61 in 1998 and joined North High School and Levzinger High School to form Team 164. Redondo and Mira Costa High Schools then split off in 1999 to form Team 294, while Hawthorne joined with SMC Corporation to form Team 207. Some of the threads of continuity from 61 to 330 include the continous participation of Hope Chapel Academy as a participant, NASA as a sponsor, and the presence of mentors like Rob Steele all the way through.
