RoboHawks 5741 State Championship Awards
This year, CVU hosted the annual Vermont FIRST Tech Challenge Robotics Championship in early February. There were 19 robotics teams from all over Vermont and this is the second year that CVU has entered TWO teams into the tournament; the varsity squad RoboHawks (#5741) and the JV squad RoboRedhawks (#22683). This year both teams were outstanding! CVU will be sending not one but TWO teams to the World Championship.

1st Place - Inspire Award: celebrates Teams that best embody the ‘challenge’ of the FIRST Tech Challenge program. The Team is a strong ambassador and a role model team for FIRST programs. Being a top contender for many other judged awards and is a gracious competitor, the Inspire Award winner is an inspiration to other Teams, acting with Gracious Professionalism both on and off the playing field. This Team shares their experiences, enthusiasm and knowledge with other teams, sponsors, their community, and the Judges. Working as a unit, this Team will also have shown success in performing the task of designing and building a Robot.
2nd Place - Innovate Award: celebrates Teams whose robot or robot sub-assembly is creative, elegant and unique in its design, as well as stable, robust and reliable. The engineering portfolio clearly and concisely describes the engineering design process for developing these innovative systems.
2nd Place - Design Award: celebrates Teams that design a robot that is inspirational, effective and consistent with Team plan and strategy and implements strong industrial design principles. The engineering portfolio and presentation clearly and effectively communicates detailed design content and design journey that incorporates both aesthetics and function into the design of the robot.
2nd Place - Connect Award: celebrates Teams that most connect with their local science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) community. A true FIRST team is more than a sum of its parts and recognizes that engaging their local STEM community plays an essential part in their success. The recipient of this award is recognized for helping the community understand FIRST, the FIRST Tech Challenge, and the Team itself. The Team actively seeks and recruits engineers and explores the opportunities available in the world of engineering, science and technology.
2nd Place - Control Award: celebrates Team's ability to utilize advanced software techniques and algorithms, sensors, hardware, and code to program a robot that can reliably and efficiently carry out tasks during Match play, in a way that improves their ability to score during a match.
