2005

Year in Review
Sponsored by L-3 Communications Integrated Systems and
Greenville ISD, Team 148, the Robowranglers, participated in
the 2005 FIRST Robotics Competition.
In the 2005 game,
"Triple Play," two alliances, one red and one blue, composed
of three teams each, compete in each match. The object
of the game is to attain a higher score than your opponent
alliance by placing tetras on or into goals, getting three
goals in a row capped with tetras, and/or having all three
robots on an alliance in their end zone at the end of the
match.
Team 148's robot,
"Lone Star," featured a scissor lift for raising tetras
several feet in the air and placing them on top of goal
tetras. "Lone Star" brought the team to a quarterfinal
finish at the Lone Star Regional alongside teams 1480 and 457.
At national competition in Atlanta, the team advanced to the
semifinals with teams 1259 and 74.
The Robowranglers
also took home the Best Website Award from the Lone Star
Regional for the second straight year.
