Congratulations to 9862 CTRL+ALT+DESTROY Seniors Ryan (team captain, mechanical design) & Xavier (lead programmer)!!!! We are so proud of you! Ryan is off to Belmont University in Nashville to major in Audio Engineering. Xavier will be a boilermaker at Purdue University and will major in Computer Science. Thank you both for all you have done to advance robotics at GPS and the FIRST organization. You both led the team to be student built & programmed, as our tradition has it. Sorry our season was cut short after semi-state... we were headed towards another great ending! Wishing the best for two amazing young men!
