Huntington County 4-H Robotics Team 1501 WON Blue Banner #2 (This makes 5 DISTRICT WINS in INDIANA in A ROW!) https://www.thebluealliance.com/team/1501

What a fun weekend at the Lafayette District Event. On Friday, our Safety Captain picked up an award for Safety All Star, an award that is chosen by her peers from other teams.

Team T.H.R.U.S.T. 1501 ranked 2nd out of 36 teams heading into the playoffs with a record of 10-2.

The team was picked by the 1st-ranked team, Team 7457 Supurdueper Robotics, to join their alliance along with Team 4580 Conductors, and were happy to play alongside them in the playoffs.

Alliance #1 went undefeated throughout the playoffs, and brought home another blue banner this season. They also set the high score record in Indiana in our first finals match. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brJUveje4Dc
