An alliance of high school students lead by the Bo-bots from Bohemia Manor High School of Chesapeake City, MD, took the win in on-field competition last Saturday, February 6, at Delaware’s FTC (FIRST Tech Challenge) Championship event at DSU in Dover.
Both FSR teams– MOE and Rhyme Know Reason— advanced to semi-final rounds, with RKR also taking the Think Award for their outstanding engineering notebook.
In addition, MOE student, Georgia Mackay was awarded the Axalta Scholarship and Emma Onstad of Rhyme Know Reason was one of two students in Delaware to be named finalists for the Dean’s List award, which will be awarded at the FTC World Championships in April.
