Panthers Robotics Club Update This weekend brought plenty of excitement, challenges, and valuable lessons for our middle and high school robotics teams! Middle School Team The middle schoolers started strong, ranking 3rd out of 24 teams by lunchtime. While technical hiccups and last-minute autonomous mode development kept them out of the finals, they finished 11th overall. Lessons learned? Fine-tuning early and honing presentations can make all the difference! High School Team Our high school team faced tough technical challenges from the get-go, including scoring system malfunctions. Despite these hurdles, they remained resilient, finishing 17th out of 24 teams—an impressive feat considering their scoring mechanism was down for most of the qualifiers. Special shoutout to Team Mentor Mr. Morris, and team members Elijah, Evan, and David for their collaborative effort and determination! Also, an extra thanks to team mentors Mr. and Mrs. Manson for their wonderful guidance. Both teams gained invaluable experience, and we're excited to see their continued growth as they gear up for the state championship in Bozeman on February 7th. Stay tuned for updates, and as always, thank you for your support!
