FIRST Robotics: Team 246 2015-2016
BU Robotics Team 246 "Overclocked" is a high school robotics team that competes in both FIRST and VEX Robotics Competitions. Students team up with adult mentors to solve an engineering design problem in an intense and competitive way. Along the way, students learn mechanical design, engineering, building techniques, and leadership skills.
This year, Team 246 is raising funds for the FIRST Robotics competition. Starting January 9th, we will have 6 weeks to build a 120-lb robot, and we will compete in 3 district events, and 1 New England Championship event. With your help, we can buy materials and equipment, as well as help support travel and registration costs for our team.
