1493 may sign up our practice robot from last year if we can get another drive team together. Not exactly the same robot as the one we used at TVR, we built two diffrent collection/scoring systems. This one is a wide collection system and can only do low goals.

We're now up to 15 teams and very happy to have a brand new rookie, Team 6300, from Lake Placid join us!!

This is shaping up to be our best event yet, so please encourage teams to sign up! This is the perfect opportunity for out of district play!

Hopefully you can get a drive team together and have the opportunity to showcase it. We would love to see it!

[Jay O'Donnell]

You can expect 229 to be signing up soon, we're pretty excited!

[Brian Maher]

This is shaping up to be a great event. 2791 is excited to see everyone and play some more Stronghold!

[Jay O'Donnell]

229 is officially signed up!

I shared this event with some old New England friends, try to share it with teams in the region so it can get to 24 teams!

Great! 3044 would love to play with our New England friends again. It has been 3 years and we miss them! We have started reaching out to teams in the Rochester area as well. With only 8 spots left, I think we can do it!

229 has been making some modifications for Robot Rumble, you can check out a video of what we have so far here: https://youtu.be/Hnc1U2l0XHQ

In the spring, 2791 made some upgrades in anticipation of Battlecry@WPI. Anyone curious can check out our high score of 250 with 195 and 501 in Eightfinals 10.
