They've also been a captain/first pick at every event since 2011, attended IRI in 2013, and build beautiful machines every year. They're also really nice people and always willing to answer questions every time I've talked to them.

(also according to my friends I'm obsessed with symmetrical / powdercoated / color coordinated robots as well as palindrome numbers, so it's hard to get much better than 696)

Thanks for the shoutout Rachel, its a great boost to our efforts aside from being a wonderful compliment.

Team 696 is working very diligently this year, perhaps more than ever, to bring home a win. A decade is a long time, and our students are determined to change this.
