The Oak Valley Middle School Robotics Teams competed at Freeland Middle School on Saturday. The Buzzin' Bots finished in 9th place and the STEAM Stingers finished in 17th place out of 36 teams. With a lot of hard work, the teams created robots that were able to score points in every category. Together the teams won 7 of 10 matches. In addition, the teams presented their robot to judges in order to express what they have accomplished. For fun the robotics teams gave out homemade awards, like Awesome Pit Display and Great Team Mascot, to their favorite competitor schools.
The STEAM Stingers and Buzzin' Bots are looking forward to competing at Novi Middle School on November 18. Matches run between 11-3:30 and entry is free if you’d like to come cheer them on for a few matches!
