Our team had a great time competing at the Sacramento Regional from March 24th to 26th! Our robot, Crane, peaked at 3rd place and got a high score with teams 254 and 2551. We were the first pick team for alliance 5 and had a blast in the playoffs with teams 6941 and captain 2637, thank you for selecting us! We also received the Gracious Professionalism Award at the second regional in a row!

Thank you to all our parents, mentors, and sponsors for their support throughout this season, we couldn't have done this without you! Another shoutout goes to our amazing head coach, Mr. Cooley, for his dedication to our team. Finally, shoutout to all our team members for all their hard work this season - we're heading into the offseason with big ideas and ready to come back stronger than ever!
