DRSS Students Compete in FRC Regional Competition Last Week

On 31 Mar – 2 Apr 2016, the local FRC Team 3138 Innovators Robotics competed with 55 other FRC teams from 9 states and 3 countries at the Queen City Regional in Cincinnati, OH. The team finished by competing in the quarterfinals and winning the Gracious Professionalism award. They received this award for their effort on and off the field by helping other teams. A big part of the award was due to their effort to grow Robotics in the Dayton area. Two local Rookie teams who received mentorship from DRSS students received the Rookie All-Award, allowing them to compete in the World Championships.

Along with the great team recognition, two DRSS students received the Dean’s List finalist award. This award is named after the inventor Dean Kamen and goes to student leaders participating on an FRC team. Only two students from each region receive this recognition and it is very rare for them both to be from the same team. Congratulations to Brianna Moen and Colleen Fulton for receiving this award! Both now head to World Championships this week to compete against the other finalists to see who will be the 10 Deans List Winners.
