All NSU University School Robotics Teams Compete at State Robotics Championship

Upper School Team Advances to World Robotics Championship

Congratulations to the NSU University School Lower, Middle, and Upper School Robotics teams for their exceptional work while competing at the Florida VEX Robotics State Championship.

The Upper School Robotics team earned a spot to compete at the VEX Robotics World Championship for the sixth consecutive year after winning the prestigious Design Award for their robot having the best design and function in the state of Florida. Sophomore Amanda Kopelman also qualified as a finalist in the VEX World Online Challenge.

The Middle School Robotics team made it to the semi-finals and placed 3rd in the robot skills challenge. They also won the “Think Award,” which is given to a team with an impressive and effective autonomous programming for their robot.

All three Lower School Shark Bots teams did a great job as well. Lower School Teams A & B tied for 5th Place in the Driving Skills Challenge out of 47 teams, and Team C made the final round for the Design Engineering Notebook interview.

Congratulations to all of the NSU University School Robotics teams for their successful year and we look forward to cheering on the Upper School team at the World Championship in April.
