Team 85 was at the St. Louis Regional, and had an impressive showing. This picture is not representative of their team. BOB has many students who work on the robot. Actually, on their pit sign, they have a statement saying "80% student built".

Their robots was one of the better trackball-tossing machines in St. Louis by the end of the competition. They took a while before they got good at hurdling, but they were good at the end. Expect them to do well at West Michigan Regional.
