“Working with FIRST Robotics has taught me the value of technical collaboration, and a lot of the skills I will need to succeed. I already knew that Cirtronics built robots, but during our onsite visits to Cirtronics, it was great to be able to take what I had learned on the robotics team, and see how it applied in real life”, said Layth Juma-Stephenson, a long time Mechanical Mayhem team member.
Mechanical Mayhem won the Granite State District Event and presented with the Gracious Professionalism Award. This prestigious award recognizes outstanding demonstration of the FIRST core values of working together respectfully, and supporting the success of other teams.
