2011 Championships

This April, Team 20 traveled to St. Louis for the FIRST Championships! We survived a 20 hour bus ride both ways to get there. At the competition, our robot held in the middle of the qualifying pack in Curie division. Our animation won the "Excellence in Production" award from Autodesk, the company that creates the animation software we use. Though not an official FIRST award, Excellence in Production recognizes the effort that all of our animators put into this year's submission.

Since this is Team 20's 20th year, we also brought our 1992 robot with us to demonstrate. Other FIRST students and mentors were intrigued by our history and the progress FIRST has made in 20 years.
