Upper School Robotics Results

Our Upper School teams competed in one of the toughest tournaments in Virginia. We had great performances across the board with 12H and 12B finishing with second and third rankings during qualifications. It was a true Potomac turnout with nine of the 10 Potomac teams playing in the elimination rounds. After an amazing elimination round, including a tough contested semi-finals matchup between 12H and the alliance of 12G and 12B, 12H would continue to the finals, unfortunately, suffering a tough loss in the end. 12H also was the recipient of the Design Award for the best engineering design process.

Our other teams also showed great perseverance and persistence in overcoming adversity and posted impressive skills scores. Enjoy photos from the tournament. Teams and results:
