The team competes for awards while honing technical skills and creating a team identity.
'At the start, we prototype, make stuff that we think would work well after we get our challenge, and then we just come together, we share all of our ideas, and then we start making stuff that we think would work well,' said Travis George of the FIRST Robotics Team.
The team is disappointed to pause their season, but they are excited for next year's competition.
' The team made it to playoffs in each of our three events, including at the New England District Championships,' said Kristopher Seluga, lead mentor of Milford FIRST Robotics Team. 'We were part of the Number one alliance, we were one match away from getting to the finals at District Champs, and the team also qualified to go to the world championship this year.'
