In Rhode Island:

There are four Schools/Organizations that dominate. This is only counting each teams instate accolades.

AIR 4H:

121 Rhode Rage- 2x Winning Alliance, 2 World Championship trips, 1x Inspire
4497 - 1x Winning alliance, 1x World Championship trips
Renegade Robotics out of Burrillville High School:

154 Renegade- 5x Winning Alliance, 4 World Championship trips, 2x Inspire

Providence Career and Tech:

657 - 2x Winning Alliance, 2 World Championship trips
3971-2x Winning Alliance, 2 World Championships trips

Mt. Hope

692- 1 Time winning alliance , 1 time inspire award
3351-

Not posting this out of arrogance like someone suggested of an earlier poster as I am not a member of the team and only mentored them during my winter break from college.

Thanks for the recognition. Rhode Rage has been very competitive since 2007. At each state championship the team has been to since 2007, we have either won the event or been event finalists (4 wins and 4 finalists).

Besides the Rhode Island championship, we have gone to Connecticut, New Jersey, and Delaware (2x).

I think there are many competitive teams across the country and world in FTC and it is hard to pick one team that is the best. No matter the event, I always look forward to meeting other 4-H teams.

AIR will be in STL with a small crew, but always ready to compete.

It's the teams you don't know about that you should worry about.

I agree completely. It's impossible to tell who is the "best" FTC Team out there. Every year new teams will arise with skills and ideas that are unheard of. Very rarely will one team completely dominate the game year after year. In my opinion, a lot of the champions are where they are because of how they work together with their alliance partner.

Two well-strategized robots can overcome even the strongest powerhouses in FTC. Just keep this is mind

We know you're from Alaska. Very true though. Especially with this game - anything can go wrong.

Very Very true, a lot of our ideas that we used came from the rookies and that we never would have thought of/over looked and there is 1500+ teams and just look at how many are rookie this year and going to worlds, this well be a great competition!!!
