Woodall robotics team competes in Broken Arrow – Muskogee Daily Phoenix

Woodall School's Cybercats Robotics Team participated recently in the Broken Arrow VRC-Vex StarStruck Tournament at the Broken Arrow Academy, a news release states. Woodall eighth-grade student Ty Brant and third-grade students Hunter Williams and Isaiah Chavez displayed a high level of enthusiasm and passion for robotics and showed they understand how to work together to develop their robot. The team won two of six matches against middle and high school teams from across the state.

In the VEX Competitions, presented by the Robotics Education & Competition Foundation, teams of students are tasked with designing and building a robot to play against other teams from around the world in a game-based engineering challenge. Classroom STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math)concepts are put to the test on the playing field as students learn lifelong skills in teamwork, leadership, communications, and more.

Tournaments are held year-round at the regional, state, and national levels; local champions go on to compete against the best in the world at VEX Worlds each April.
