WOW! That was a long time away. Last weekend we ran the Colorado State FTC Championship Tournament. We had 37 teams from all over the state compete to represent Colorado at the World Tournament this April. This was our 5th season, our biggest, and our best. We started in 2008 with 5 teams and this year we had over 40 registered!
The Knights who say C took home the Inspire award and the Robo Wizards 2.0 where the captains of the winning alliance. Both teams have received an invitation to the World Tournament. The winning alliance was made up of the Robo Wizards, Red Meteors, and the Robo Wizards 2.0. We will be posting Pictures and the tournament video latter this week.
You will be seeing more of me now that the tournament is over. Some of the upcoming topics will be:
