The Calvary Christian School Robotics Club won the Falcon BEST Robotics Hub Tournament on Saturday at Bowling Green State University, earning a trip to the Midwest Regional Championship in Park City, Kansas.
The team received this year’s competition challenge during the Falcon Kickoff event in September and spent the following weeks designing, building, programming, and testing its robot.
Competing in its second year of the Boosting Engineering Science and Technology (BEST) Robotics competition, Calvary finished ahead of 16 other high school teams.
The team earned the championship after averaging 100 points per round during the final rounds of competition.
Calvary also received the Robust Award for robot design, durability, and performance.
Adler Miller was recognized for his leadership and contributions to the robot’s design and development.
Cooper Beatty and Levi Hanson earned the Top Gun Award as driver and spotter after recording the competition’s highest single-round score with 139 points.
The team also placed second in the BEST Award competition, which evaluates engineering, marketing, teamwork, communication, and outreach.
Eighth-grade robotics students contributed to that achievement.
Calvary will next compete at the Midwest Regional Championship on December 4th and 5th in Park City, Kansas.
