What a great way to wrap up the season! 🎉

This week, the ThunderChickens gathered for our end-of-season banquet to celebrate an incredible year, recognize our amazing sponsors, and hear from our seniors as they prepare for their next adventures in college.

While our robot didn't achieve everything we hoped on the field, our students gained valuable experience, grew as leaders and teammates, and brought home two blue banners. We couldn't be more proud of all they accomplished this season!

A big Thank You to .robotics for having us over to their shop this afternoon. We appreciate the use of your high ceilings to gather some data that we can't get at home. Good Luck next weekend at SVSU!

The Chickens had an amazing week at the Troy #2 event where we went 8-4 with a rank of 14! We gave it our all and were eliminated in the lower bracket in round 3. However, we storm on to the FRC MSC with our first IMPACT award win since 2017! We are proud to be recognized for the IMPACT we make in our community and in Michigan. As we improve, we look to bring the thunder and perform well at the MSC! 💙💚⚡📣🎉
