Silicon Valley District 2026

At the 2026 Silicon Valley District Competition, our team spent an exciting three days competing, learning, and growing alongside teams from across the region. Throughout qualification matches, members worked hard to adapt, improve, and support one another in a fast-paced environment. We were proud to be selected as a backup robot for Alliance 4, giving us the chance to step in during playoffs and contribute on the field. The event was full of energy, from time in the pits to matches on the field, and gave both new and returning members valuable experience. We are especially proud to have earned the Creativity Award, recognizing the unique design and innovation behind our robot, and we’re excited to build on this momentum for the rest of the season.

Pinnacles District 2026

At the 2026 Pinnacles District Competition, our team spent an exciting three days competing, learning, and growing alongside teams from across the region. Throughout qualification matches, members worked hard to stay consistent, adapt to challenges, and support one another in a competitive environment. We were proud to be selected as the first pick for Alliance 7, giving us the opportunity to compete in playoffs and gain valuable elimination experience. The event was full of energy, from time in the pits to matches on the field, and gave both new and returning members meaningful opportunities to contribute. We are especially proud to have earned the Creativity Award again, recognizing the innovation of our bidirectional shooter, and we’re excited to carry this momentum into the rest of the season.
