The Shawkbots

Day One Update!
FRIDAY UPDATE: Results are starting to come in from the first day of competition at the VEX World Championships. All three teams have begun competition, with promising results across the board early on. The format of the tournament pits robots from two teams in head-to-head battles, and so far the Shawkbots have acquitted themselves nicely:

Dendy, Graydon & Andrey: 6 wins, 2 losses
Maya, John & Oliver: 6 wins, 1 loss, 1 draw
Damian, Parker & Madison: 5 wins, 3 losses

The Championships will continue through the weekend, so make sure to stay tuned for more updates, or follow along for yourself at the offical tournament website: http://www.robotevents.com/robot-competitions/vex-robotics-competition/re-vrc-15-1717.html
