Hauppauge High School’s FIRST Robotics team participated in the FIRST Robotics Hudson Valley Regional Competition. Out of 48 participating teams, the Hauppauge Robotic Eagles, team 358, came in 18th place.
The team, working with an alliance of two other robots, made it all the way to the semifinals. The Hauppauge Robotic Eagles were also named fifth best for autonomous mode, where the robot was able to score points entirely off of the student programmed mode.
The team looks forward to competing in the Long Island Regional Competition at Hofstra University from March 21-23. The district congratulates the team and their two advisers, Sal Sparacino and Casey Collins, both Hauppauge High School, and FIRST Robotics alumni.
