Team History

This was the best season our team has ever had. At our first competition, we were ranked first and won the event (our first event win/blue banner ever!), in addition to being recognized with the Autonomous Award. At our second competition, we were rank 5, members of the finalist alliance, and winners of the Quality Award. We had some bad luck at the PNW District Championship, but were still chosen for a playoffs alliance at DCMP for the first time ever. All together, this was enough for us to qualify for worlds for the first time in team history! At worlds, we were rank 22 out of the 75 teams in our division and were absolutely floored to be awarded the Team Spirit Award. We can't wait to see where next year takes us!

In our fifteenth season, we had one of our best years yet. At Sammamish, our safety captain Kaylee won the Safety All-Star Award, and at Auburn, we were captains of the 4th seed alliance and won the Team Spirit Award. We qualified for the PNW District Championships for the first time since 2017!

2022 was a rebuilding year for us, as school was back in person and we recruited a solid crop of underclassmen.

Robot name: Jenga

We had a small team this year, but we kept going even as the competition moved online and we were forced to find a new shop to work out of while our school was closed. We took the opportunity to try something new and experimented with a hexagonal robot.

After a solid start, the season was unfortunately cut short by everyone's least favorite uninvited guest, the pandemic.

We won the Safety Award at Auburn! This was also the year we rebranded from lightning bolts to unicorns.

We won the Gracious Professionalism and Safety Awards at Mount Vernon! This year, we also started a partner team, the ScotBots 7118, and they won Highest Rookie Seed. (The ScotBots did well for a few years, then combined back into Team Pronto during the pandemic.)

At the Shorewood event, we won the Creativity Award and were finalists. We qualified for the PNW District Championships this year, in the very first year of the PNW being a district.

We won the Innovation in Control award at the Autodesk Oregon Regional.

2009 was our rookie year! We did shockingly well in qualifiers, going undefeated and ending up rank 1, then went into alliance selection with no preparation and quickly lost our first match in finals.
