Competition Season Overview We competed in the Oregon City competition. We had some problems with our robot in the first few qualification matches, but the team worked together to solve them. After improving in the next few matches, we were selected to be on an alliance. Unfortunately, we lost our first semifinal round and were eliminated from the competition. We finished in 25th place out of 35 teams! Overall, we are proud of our efforts as a team and plan to do even better in our Wilsonville competition this weekend!

Subteam Updates Controls
Right now, we are setting up the motor controls so they are ready to be put on the board. This week, we hope to mount all the electronics on the board. So far, we have put the fans and fan guards on the motor controls.
Research and Design
We are finishing up detailing our CAD drawings to give to fabrication. This week, we hopefully will get the driving system, the claw, and the shooter done.
