GHS Quasics Robot Team Again Tackles The Challenge


As a follow up to a prior post here, I note that the Quasics Robotics Team is again entering the national FIRST Robotics Competion. In their last project, they finished in first place in the rookie division, and 10th in the overall competition. Mathew Kohler, a chemistry and physics teacher at GHS who mentors the team, said the last team was only assembled about a month before the competition. Ed Sentor, another chemistry and physics teacher mentoring the GHS team, noted that last years expenses were largely borne by the team members. It is hoped that the District will provide the modest funding necessary for this great project in the years ahead. For more, check out their web site, http://www.quasics.com/.
