Upper school robotics team has history-making run at FIRST Championship
Last month, Harker’s upper school robotics team traveled to Houston for the FIRST Championship, an international competition with representation from more than 60 countries. It was the team’s first appearance at the championships since 2005, and signs were good early on, as the team cleared the quarterfinals of its group “by a wide margin,” said upper school computer science chair Eric Nelson, who oversees the robotics program. The team’s success continued as it won the Roebling Division (for the first time in the team’s history) and proceeded to the elimination rounds, where the winners of each division faced off. Harker and its alliance finished fourth overall, ending a great run for the team!
