What an exciting week for everyone on the team! After a thrilling win, Code Red can confirm that we'll be attending World Championships in St. Louis, MO, on April 26th-29th! Stay tuned for more info about fundraising and the trip shortly.
Meanwhile, you can read this recap of what happened this weekend. There was a lot going on, so this is a great way to make sure you're caught up!
Code Red Robotics competed with our robot in two competitions this year. The Suffern, NY region
al event was our second competition. During the first day and a half of the competition, six randomly selected robots competed against each other in two teams until a ranking was established. You can review the game we played here: www.tinyurl.com/FRC-Steamworks
Then, the top 8-ranked teams chose two other robots to play with them in an alliance against each other top teams. Code Red Robotics, ranked 15th out of 48 at the end of the preliminary competition round, was chosen by the 8th ranked alliance. Despite seemingly unlikely odds, we defeated all other top alliances, and won the regional with highest score of the weekend. Code Red’s alliance partners were two high school teams from Flushing and Brooklyn, NY. This victory qualified us for the World Championships.
We also won an award celebrating its professionalism, interactions with other teams, and team structure. The award, known as the Gracious Professionalism award, also commends our volunteer work in the Ithaca community and our efforts to give young kids access to technology and science education.
