Congratulations to the San Marcos High School robotics team for finishing 2nd at the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Alamo Regional.

FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is an international high school robotics competition. Each year, over 3000 teams of high school students and mentors work during a six-week period to design, build, program, and test their machines that can weigh up to 120 pounds. The game changes yearly, and this year’s game was Stronghold-a medieval themed castle capture game. FIRST organizes four different competition programs for all grade levels(k-12).
