On October 1st, many of the Grand Rapids FRC teams gathered in Wyoming to compete in the Grand Rapids All Girls' Robotics Competition. These teams used their robots from last year's game, Stronghold, to compete against each other. But, the difference was - only girls were allowed to be on the drive team! The TriSonics were excited to be a part of this event, and the girls on the team got together to work on driving the robot before the event. They practiced for a couple of weeks, and by the time of the event they were ready to compete!
At the event, four of the girls on our team competed on the drive team, and used the Stronghold robot to compete against other West Michigan teams. During alliance selection, the TriSonics were chosen onto the 5th alliance along with the Kalamazoo robotics team. Even though the team was elminated in the semi-finals, the girls still had a ton of fun and really enjoyed the experience.
