We're another week closer to our first tournament this season. Our teams are very hands on when it comes to working on the robots. Everyone gets in on the action. Here's Jake working in the metal shop. Our teams work with what they got. So, when a piece wasn't quite right he made sure it was useful. Chris is working on a future robot prototype. A forward thinker, for sure!

We started our season out not too long ago. After introducing our two new team members we got to work right away. This year's game is called "In The Zone". The game starts with a fifteen second autonomous period, where the robot is programmed to drive around and score without any help from the driver. There are a few different places to score. Such as; the high goals and mobile goals that the robot stacks cones onto. After the autonomous period is over the drivers have 1:45 to score. You're able to place the mobile goals anywhere on the field. There are zones for both teams to add to their mobile goal score; (5 point zone, 10 point zone, and 20 point zone.) There are additional points given for having the highest stack in a zone or parking your robot in your teams color square.
