Greenville, Texas

1997
Sponsored by Raytheon E-Systems and Greenville ISD, Team 35 participated in the 1997 FIRST Robotics Competition.

In the 1997 game, "Torroid Terror," two teams compete in each match.  The object of the game is to collect, transport and place inner tubes onto pegs on the goal, or around the top of the goal.

Team 35's robot could pick up the tubes and place them on the 9-foot goal.  The robot led Team Greenville to a 3rd place finish.

The team also earned the Proctor & Gamble Creativity Award at the Motorola Midwest Regional in Chicago.  Moving on to nationals, Team Greenville returned home as a Chairman's Award Finalist with the WPI scholarship and Outstanding Defense Award.
