Shockwave Robotics Team: Third Competition of the Season
From Morgan Brown, Liam Murphy, and Ryan Stevens, Shockwave Coaches:
The Grauer School's FTC Shockwave #3848 Robotics Team competed in their third meet of the season at Sage Creek High School on January 10. The team's new robot performed well. Shockwave was one of the team captains in the fun competition that was held after the meet, and they won the competition by winning 3 matches with their partners, which was very exciting! Team members will continue to work on finalizing their new robot, programming the autonomous mode, and getting some driver practice to help them in their upcoming competitions. We are grateful to our team parents who came to the competition to cheer for our team.
