Syntax Error - 1200
Toss Up |
The focus of our team this year
was to win tournaments mainly. We wanted to have a good shot at winning state
and nationals.
The main focus of our robot design throughout the year was to have an efficient scorer that performed well in the skills challenges, mainly robot skills. We had used pretty much the same design all year until nationals, using a top roller, six and a six bar robot. Our nationals bot can be explained using the reveal video We won a total of 12 awards this year:
We all learned a lot about solving problems to a challenge together in a team setting and how to effectively work with others in a professional manner Since we are all seniors, Syntax will be passed on to next year’s class just as it has for the last decade. Hopefully next year’s class can carry the Syntax Error reputation with pride. We are confident that they will. |
