GMS Goes to VEX Robotics World Championship
GMS played with and against teams from all over the US, China, Singapore, Mexico, and Taiwan in the qualifying matches. The team finished with a record of 6-4 in these rounds and even defeated the #3 team overall from Singapore in one of the matches. This left the Gadgeteers with a ranking of 31st of the 80 teams in our division and just barely missing the final playoff rounds.
GMS made it to VEX Worlds based on our #1 state Skills ranking. The team improved that score from 33 to 45 this weekend. This leaves us as #29 out of the 160 teams at Worlds -- not bad at all! These girls worked extremely hard and had an extraordinary opportunity to experience the "top of the mountain." We're so proud of them!
