Our team (#201) is called the FEDS. Our original sponsor was EDS, so we took the F from Falcons (our school mascot) and put EDS at the end.
When we lost EDS and picked up Visteon as our sponsor, we now had a name derived from a former sponsor that we didn't particularly like at that point. The name, however, was what we were known as, so we developed a clever acronym for FEDS: Falcon Engineering and Design Solutions So there you have it, the clever backronym for our team name. As for our robot, only one of them, our 2001 robot, has a name. It was called Tippy in honor of its apparent lack of balance when on the floor (not on the bridge, it was fine there ). |
