The Norsemen Robotics team succeeded in qualifying for and competing at the FIRST in Michigan State Championship held earlier this month at Saginaw Valley State University, however, did not make it into the playoffs.

While the nine member team’s journey stopped there, it was an achievement for all involved to be able to make it to the state championship for the 11th time in Norsemen robotics history since the team’s inception in 2011.

“Even though we didn’t make it into playoffs I think all the kids were really happy to be there and really excited by just seeing this different level of play at the state championships versus the district events,” said Emma Megill, Norsemen Robotics team mentor. “These power house teams from downstate are just insane to watch.”
