This Tuesday Team 5992 held our 3rd Annual Krispy Kreme Fundraiser! This was our most successful yet, selling out in one period (50 minutes) and raising over $1000. A huge thank you to everyone who supported us and the administration for the opportunity. This community's generosity never fails to leave our team speechless. These funds will be essential in buying parts for next season, so we are truly grateful. Go Pirates!

Team 5992 qualified and competed in the 2024 FIRST Mid-Atlantic District Championship at Stabler Arena at Lehigh University for the first time in 5 years. Although we did not get the result we wanted in the end, it was an amazing experience as a team, competing with and against 60 other highly competitive teams.
We are extremely proud of the whole team and their efforts throughout this 12-week season. Another thank you to the drive team, scouting team, mentors, parents, supporters, and sponsors for all your hard work and support.

Team 5992 competed in the Warren Hills Event in Washington Township, NJ this past weekend. The team had 8 wins and 4 losses in our 12 qualification matches and ranked 10th place, seeming like a replay of our last competition. However, during alliance selection our team became the 6th alliance captain. We chose to work with Team 7045 and Team 75. Our team upset Alliance 3, but lost to Alliance 2. Because our robot had to undergo emergency repairs in the aftermath of our second playoff match, we had to make a split second decision to switch out our robot for the substitute, team 6945. While our team scrambled to get a functional robot that passed the safety requirements to continue, our alliance won against alliance 8. At the end of their match our repairs were done and we were able to switch back into the lineup, beating Alliance 5. Unfortunately, we lost to alliance 2 for the second time, securing our alliance 3rd place in the tournament. As an added bonus, our team claimed the highest score of the competition with 87 points in one match. All in all, our positive performances in both events helped our team to qualify for the district championship in Lehigh, for the first time in 5 years. Thank you to the drive team, scouting team, mentors, fans, and fellow alliance members for all your hard work and support. We will see everyone at Lehigh!!!

Team 5992 competed at First Mid-Atlantic District Montgomery Event in Skillman, NJ. The team had 8 wins and 4 losses in their 12 qualification matches ranking 10th. In our first match, our alliance even scored the highest score of the entire competition scoring 108 points in one match. During alliance selection, our team became the 8th alliance captain, choosing to work with Team 708 and Team 4361 in the playoffs. Unfortunately, we lost to the first Alliance in the winners' bracket, knocking us down to the losers' bracket. We won our next match upsetting Alliance 5. Unfortunately, we were knocked out of playoffs in the next match against Alliance 3, but the whole Alliance 8 put up a great fight. To wrap up our evening, we received the 2024 Excellence in Engineering Award FIRST MID-ATLANTIC DISTRICT Montgomery Event. Thank you to all our supporters, Alliance members, the scouting team, and the driving team for all their hard work. We will see everyone next week for our final district competition of the year.

Team 5992 made an alliance with Mount St. Dominic Academy's Project Outreach to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the homeless. It was a great turnout with over 30 members of the robotics team attending. As a whole, we made 144 sandwiches which we distributed at Newark's Penn Station. Our team cannot wait for more events and alliances with Project Outreach. Check out our Instagram for more pictures on the event!
