2012 FRC Championship Overview

Monday, May 14th, 2012

Thanks to everyone who supported the ausTIN CANs throughout the 2012 FRC season! 

ausTIN CANs, team 2158, was mentioned during the FRC Championship Opening Ceremonies. Ray Hsu, K-12 Program Manager at National Instruments, talked about the team’s involvement in designing a better knee brace. Popular Mechanics interviewed the team about this special project while at Championships. Check out the article HERE!

The team had a great time competing and, despite some technical problems along the way, was also recognized  with some surprise Championship hardware – the Galileo Division Coopertition Award! ausTIN CANs also made some great new friends. The team is so grateful to have had the chance to compete at Championships for the first time since 2007. We look forward to hopefully earning our way back next season! But for now, it’s off-season time! We hope to see you all at Texas Robot Roundup this summer!
