I'm most excited for just 
like the promotional and the exhibits
just because it's a lot of fun getting
to interact with everyone.
When I went, our robot pretty much completely failed.
This is our first year trying so just
getting it in, getting some points feels really good and seeing our robot work.
One of the greatest things about BEST Robotics is that it
comes entirely free to participating
schools. All the costs associated with
BEST Robotics are underwritten by our
sponsors so they're critical to our
success.
We're just kind of like fine-tuning our
robots so we at least have one moving arm.
Hopefully make our robot grab the
transistors.
We didn't come expecting to win for our first time here.
We did well by placing the hinges on the dowels
and we did really well the
first round by placing the dowels on the hand gates.
It's really fun. We we had a lot of
problems last night with some of our
robots so we came here and got those
fixed and it's been working great so far so
we're really happy.
We had to re-attach a new servo to the end of our claw to move it.
All of the things they learn getting
ready for today's competition will help
them in their futures - I don't care what
career path they follow.
