Rampothy finished 21 of 40 robots at the competition. The Wolverines also “were selected to compete in the quarterfinals where we made history successfully executing a challenging plan – one never seen before in the history of the history of FIRST [For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology] robotics,” per the Westwood Robotics’ blog.

The Wolverines will not be resting on their laurels; off-season plans include fixing their t-shirt cannon and cleaning the lab. A year-end banquet will also be held next month.
