153 was known as the Wombats for at least one of their years in FIRST; they were our "twin" team for a while when both 341 and 153 were sponsored by Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical. In fact, in 2002 when we were voting on team names, we very nearly selected the Wombats instead of Miss Daisy.
Every year at our off-season event, Ramp Riot, we reserve a spot for pre-rookies to compete with our practice robot; we use number 153 for this entry in honor of our old mentors. In years past, teams like 1712 and 2234 have competed as team 153.
