FTC Team #17969 - Denver, Colorado
We are FTC team #17969. Our team has been around for a few years now and have built a competitive reputation. For the Centerstage season 2023-2024 we've competed in two qualifying events and made it to the Championship round in both events, finishing the season as Jemison Division champions at the FIRST Championship in Houston. We were also awarded the 1st place Inspire Award and Think Award. At the Colorado State Championship we were the Winning Alliance Team Captain, leading to advancement to the 2024 FTC Championship. In the 2021-2022 Freight Frenzy season we took home the Promote Award and 2nd Place Think Award at the Colorado State Championship along with the following awards at the NW Denver Qualifying event: 2nd Place Inspire, 1st Place Innovate, and 4th Place Ranking Robot Score earning a spot in the Semi-Finals. For the 2020-2021 Ultimate Goal Season we earned the Control Award and took home the highest honor, Inspire Award at qualifiers. We also earned an invitation to the Colorado State competition as a rookie team. At State we ranked 6th place overall and took home the 1st Place Design Award. It was a successful season as a rookie team and we are looking forward to competing in future Colorado and surrounding states. Our team continues to grow as more students at our school learn about what we do and give it a try.
