CEC TriBots

The CEC TriBots kicked off there competition season this past Saturday at Ola High School for the VEX Spooktacular. It was an exciting and challenging day for all 3 teams.

Team 95M (Micah White, Landon Thompson, and Cole Cannon) finished qualification matches in 14th place with a 3-3 record. Team 95E (Adalynn Jordan, Zione’ Adams, Joel Dorasami, and Zachary Fishery) finished qualification matches in 16th place with a 2-4 record. Team 95 T (Karen Nozaki, Bree Knight, Harrison Ratzlaff, and Kardell Young) finished qualification matches in 18th place with a 1-5 record.

95M was selected by Team 98881B from St. Pius X Catholic High School to be a part of the #6 alliance for the Tournament. Unfortunately they lost their match in the round of 16.

95E captained the #9 alliance and selected 95T as their partner. They won their match against the #8 seed in the round of 16 but lost in the quarterfinals to the #1 seed team who eventually won the tournament.

Team 95T won the Judges Award at the tournament, based on their Engineering Design Notebook which documents their entire design, build and programming process, and the team interview. Comments from the judges included the synergy of the group and their openness to receive constructive feedback.

Being the Spooktacular, there was a costume contest. 95E won the Award for Best Team Costume, they dressed as the 90’s decade.

Congratulation to all of the TriBots for an outstanding day. They continue to make us proud with their professionalism and sportsmanship. Several of the judges, referees, and other workers at the tournament commented specifically about how well our teams act and continually represent CEC.

Congratulations to Pam Brown and her teams! Next competition is Saturday, December 2 at the CEC. Come join us!!
