team

 

 

The robotics teams @ STEM at Crockett have been busy competing during this year’s robotics season.

 

All but one of the team members are first-time robotics competitors and after the competition this past weekend all teams have made the finals at least once.

 

Rock-a-Bots teams & team members include:

148A is Ethan Kiowski, Nicolas Gonzalez, and Azthlan Gomez-Alvarez.
148B is Jose Andres-Santiago, Peyton Beumer, Samuel Townsend, and Gamaliel Nunez
148C is Gabriel Montes, Skyler James, and Bradley Sampson
148D is Selena Ugalde, Lisa Andres-Santiago, Natalia Guerrero, and Nivaeh Medulla
148E is Karen Adeluyi, Paisley Dennis, Jaylyn Ibarra, Angelina Munoz, and Kenzi McNeely

 

Team 148E entered the VEX IQ Girl Powered online challenge as they documented their season as a brand-new all-girl competition team. They also led the Girl Powered event held @ STEM at Crockett earlier this year.  They are hopeful to find out if they have made it to the finals later this month.

 

Team 148 A won the Teamwork Championship and Skills Championship January 25 in Dallas. With this win, they earned a spot at the state tournament on February 29.  They are currently ranked 6th in the state in skills, and are working hard to try and earn a spot at Worlds in April.

 

“They have grown so much and I am excited to see what they will do in the future.” said Rock-a-bots Coach Susanna Berrones. “I am so proud of the great accomplishment it has been for them to win against elementary and middle school teams with such a dominating style by winning the skills and the teamwork contests.

 

The final regular season tournament is this Saturday, February 8.
