Sarah B. - OwlBot Researcher - 8th Grade
Sorry about the gap between recent posts; both teams were preparing for the qualifier last weekend. I am happy to announce that both the OwlBots and the Green Machine will be advancing to the state competition. In order to be eligable to advance, teams had to rank in the top 12 out of 24 teams in the robot game and be one of the top 6 overall across all categories. While our robot game results were not as good as we had been averaging in practice, our research projects and core value scores were excellent.
As well as advancing, the OwlBots won the Judges' Award for excellance in all categories, and Mr. O won the Adult Mentor Award. Both teams are looking forward to the competition at UMBC on January 19. We'd like to thank all of our mentors for listening to our project, and helping us improve it.
Great job Robotics teams! I look forward to cheering you on at UMBC on January 19. What is your plan for improving your already amazing work before the state competition? Any new developments?
