All the FRC Teams That Ever Were

[Rick TYler]

Team 488 was founded at Redmond High School and sponsored by Microsoft, but after the first year the team moved (with their number) to Franklin High in Seattle, where it is still registered. Exothermic Robotics is now the resident robot team for Redmond High, but competes in VRC and FTC instead of FRC. The Microsoft sponsorship moved to Franklin, and is no longer available to Redmond High (we asked).

Strictly speaking, the Microsoft sponsorship exists only in that we use their facilities and we do so at the behest of just one man. Also, for what it's worth, the team did not compete in 2001 -- the season after its first at Redmond HS.
