Looks good. I'm not an expert on site design (if such thing exists), but here a few things I noticed, feel free to ignore my input.
I'm not sure if you want the "About Us", "FIRST", and "Sponsors" buttons all going to a single link page, that could be a little confusing, you could have a separate link page for each of those buttons and have some sort of supporting material on the link page (like pictures or an anecdote/paragraph on the subject) and have the links(buttons) at the top or along the side of the page.
The site navigation links at the very bottom of the page seemed to take up a lot of space (compared to the rest of the page), I like the logo at the bottom filling the background space but I'm not sure if you need all of the navigation links down there a sitemap page would suffice.
On my screen the logo on the right touches the search box, you might want to move the logo down a little bit.
The navigation buttons at the very top don't really follow the squared off theme of the rest of the site, and don't take up a lot of room. My suggestion would be to make the buttons square and simple (solid color) and make the navigation buttons take up most of the width of the center area of the website (where the main content is) and the full height of the navigation bar. Similar to
this (#2).
Overall looks very clean, good work.
