Centreville Robotics Centreville Robotics / FRC Aegis Robotics #5243 The team had a successful year but was not able to continue in the following year.

The Centreville Robotics team, 5243, was first established in the 2009-2010 school year and mentored by Oli Small & Edie Rutz. In the 2013-14 school year a small group of dedicated students worked to establish the Centreville High School Robotics team. With the help of mentors Oli Small and Dave Thompson, the current Centreville Robotics team was formed. The goal of the team was to particpate in the First Robotics Competition in 2014's Aerial Assist game. The team had to adapt quickly to the fast-paced schedule of the FRC, and with hard work, flexibility, and dedication the team ranked 16th place in the rankings of the DC regional where over 50 teams competed. The team was awarded the FIRST Highest Rookie Seed Award at the competition. In the 2015's Recycle Rush game we competed at two regional events. We finished at the South Florida Regional ranked 14th out of 50 teams, but we were not selected for an Alliance position for the playoffs. At the Greater DC Regional we finished in 13th place, but moved into the 8th Alliance Captain position due to the Alliance selection process. As Alliance captains we selected teams 116 (out of Herndon, VA) and 2377 (out of Pasadena, MD). Our strong Alliance was incredibly successful through quarter-finals, semi-finals and made it to the final round. In the final matches we fell to the 1st ranked Alliance, earning 120 to their 124 points, and then 132 to their 137 points.

Virginia robotics students - talk to your coach!

Did you know that students on FRC, FTC, and VEX teams can earn a VHSL letter in robotics?

But your team needs to participate. Coaches need to complete the required VHSL Robotics Rules Clinic by September 30, 2026, and teams need to submit their VHSL package by May 31, 2027.

We need more Virginia robotics teams to participate to keep this program going.

Send this to your coach, and ask them to take the training!

It was a blast to be part of bringing Dragonslayer to life! 🐉⚔️

We’re proud of our students for putting their engineering and fabrication skills to work on the dragon lift mechanism for bandwildcat. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to be part of such a great production!
