Gateway to the West VRC Signature Event @ West Virginia (Feb 2th, 2024)

Held in West Virginia, Gateway to the West was another World-level Signature Event that we attended, containing many of the teams we saw from Kalahari. In qualification matches this time, we had a bad match schedule, losing 4 out of 10 matches and getting 28th in qualification rounds overall. Thanks to some excellent scrimmages the day before, however, we managed to secure a solid alliance with the 1st seed, Exobits. In the end, we became Finalists. Thank you to 19589A and 80508X for giving us two spectacular Finals matches! Thank you to all the volunteers and the US Navy for helping out with the event! We’ll see many of you again at Launch!

Kalahari Classic VRC Signature Event @ Ohio (Jan 19th, 2024)

With 172 teams and held in Ohio, where some of the strongest VEX teams have always been, Kalahari was probably the most competitive event we would attend before Worlds. Considering that we were put in the division with 2/3 of all the strongest teams of the competition, we did well, losing only 1 qualification match and ranking 6th in quals overall. Thanks to a great alliance with 2011D, we managed to win the Round of 16 and barely lost to 2011K and 2011B in quarter-finals. In Skills, we managed to rank 7th overall! Thank you to all the teams and volunteers that made this such an incredible competition, and we can’t wait to see you at Launch!
