On Wednesday, April 13, the Nuts and Bolts both flew down to Orlando, Florida for the VEX World Championships. 416 of the best high school VEX teams were competing as well. Unfortunately, both DRIVEN teams had some bad luck with their robot and batteries on the field, so they didn’t rank very well nor did they win any awards. No tears were shed though, the Nuts had a very successful first year and everyone had a fantastic time together and with other teams.

Nuts and Bolts will be competing together for their spots in the world championships in Dallas! We’ll be at Christopher Dock High School in Landsdale, PA.
