Fall Activities

GRITS

GRITS this year was held at Walton High School on October 10th, where the Robo Lions were able to score as runner-ups, along with alliance captain 1648 G3 Robotics and 4189 Chargers. The team also took home the Outreach Award, representing with over 25 rookie attendees.

VEX Robotics Competition: Robots at the Ridge

The game in the 2016 season was Nothing but Net. We had a blast at our Robots at the Ridge VEX competition on Saturday, November 21st, at Peachtree Ridge High School. We had one of our VEX teams make it to the quarter-finals, but sadly not any further. Of course, at the end of the day, the 2016 Robo Lion members had a blast, made new friends, and some of them can't wait to start year-long VEX! We would like to thank all teams that were in attendance, as well as all the volunteers who graciously supported us throughout the event. We congratulate our award winners: Tournament Champion: Team Woodward (1900R) from Woodward Academy Tournament Champion: Team GMA (1900W) from Woodward Academy Tournament Champion: RoboDragons E (675E) from Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology Excellence Award: Raider Robotics (3536M) from North Forsyth High School Judges’ Award: RoboDragons E (675E) from Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology
