The Gorillas - Robotics State Championship

Hello Supporters

HCPS FRC Team 1225: The Gorillas had an excellent build and competition season; which we have extended by advancing to the FIRST North Carolina District Championship at East Carolina University.

Our shop has been open over 146 hours in the last 10 weeks for the build season and we put in 60hrs during the last two event weekends. Our students and mentors hardwork and collective dedication has led them to great success. At the UNC Asheville District we played with the third place alliance and won the Imagery Award; for the integration of our team aesthetic into our robot design; giving us a professional & sleek product. At the Mecklenburg County event we once again played into the semi-finals with the third place alliance, and won the Innovation in Control Award, for integrating automatic driver feedback in our control system. This success has advanced us to the FIRST North Carolina District Championship (States) where we will play alongside the top 40 teams in the state. Allowing us to continue playing this year's FIRST Robotics Competition game; Crescendo presented by Haas, in hope of making it to FIRST Championship (Worlds) in Houston, TX.

We need your help! We are running a campaign to help us get to states, these funds will help cover our entry fee and travel costs for the weekend of April 5th-7th. Our all inclusive program never charges our students to compete, allowing us to serve any Henderson County High School Student that wants to participate. Funds will be designated to help cover the costs of states, and any overflow will continue to help support FRC Team 1225: The Gorillas.
