What's happening: Smith Middle School achieved a remarkable feat last weekend by hosting a prestigious robotics competition for the second year in a row. What’s more, Ramsey teams rocked in their home arena!
Both high school teams jumped their ranks going undefeated on the day with the exception of one round where they had to face each other. The result: new league rankings of 3rd and 4th place. 🏆
Team 10243 The Ramsey Ramblers robot driven by Owen Kozar, Gabe Estrada, Sarah Benfanti and Angelina Barone broke a state record in points scored. Two rounds later scored more points and set a world record with 260 points scored.
Another team run by Vincent Kozlik, Andrew Feuss, Daniela Lam and Zelig Meshel did so well on the day that they jumped their league rank from 16th to 4th. 🚀
The bottom line: The highly anticipated competition kicked off on Saturday morning, drawing a crowd of enthusiastic spectators and participants. A second, intense round of matches followed later in the afternoon.
The big picture: I can’t wait for the RAM (Robotics, Auto, Makerspace) Center at the high school campus to be complete and serve as the new home for our rising robotics program!
🎉 Congratulations to all!
