elcome to the official website of the Robowranglers, a robotics
team comprised of students and teachers from Greenville High
School and engineers from L-3 Communications Integrated Systems in
Greenville, Texas. Each year through the FIRST Robotics
Competition, L-3 volunteer engineers, high school students, and
members from the community partner together to build a robot in a
time period of six weeks. Through this building process,
engineers mentor students in brainstorming, prototyping, design,
and creation of the robot and its functions. Students work
at L-3 each night to create and build the various parts needed for
the robot. This enables the students to take classroom
concepts from the math and science fields and apply them to a real
world situation.
Coaches Corner
Exceptional is the best word to describe the Lone Star
Regional experience. What an exceptional weekend we had
in Houston, it proves as a team we play hard and we work even
harder. I am certain no other robot was as exciting to
watch as Lone Star. The best memory was hearing the
announcer shout, "Watch out, Lone Star
takes
a hit and keeps on shooting, it's a shoot and a make."
Those points just flew into the goal, our autonomous was
fail-proof, our drivers cool, calm and concentrated, our team
working as one unit and our alliances always depending on us
to be the leader we have grown to be at competition. How
about our cheering squad? I am certain no other team had
as many moms, dads, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandmas, grandpas
and friends as Team 148! Wow, there were red shirts
everywhere. It's always a little humbling as a coach to
see how much support we have as a team from those who love and
care for us.
