UTC Woodie Flowers Award winner Dave Ferreria works with Middletown and Portsmouth High School students on RhodeWarrior IV. I found this picture while looking through some archives of this years design and build period. It is amazing how far things can go through the effort of dedicated people!

middletown ct?

Middletown, RI… although it seems like there is one in almost every state!

BTW, I can’t count in roman numerals, this is actually RhodeWarrior IX.

Has it really been nine years?

tisk tisk tisk… this is very disapointing Rob… not knowing the team history… yes its the 9th year for the team… but this is RhodeWarrior VII… the first 2 years were not rhode warriors… i remeber 96 was aquatread… but not sure about 97… gesh rob… shown up by a team rookie =P

I must be getting senile in my old age…

Or maybe I am just distracted by trying to make sure I can still graduate despite missing class for three competitions this year.

97 was DEFINITELY Aqua-Tread.
That robot was famous in it’s own way. :wink:
Every true FIRST trivia Buff should know why.
(No fair Grady… you were THERE).

I was there also John, I was one of the drivers :rolleyes:
