The B-B-E Resistance Robotics team won their last two matches of Friday's competition round. Their overall record is 4-3-1, and they've climbed to 25th place out of 63 teams. This is really phenomenal considering that this is by far the youngest, greenest robotics team that B-B-E has sent to Duluth since the team was founded in 2012.
I hope things go well in the morning. They are having a fantastic showing at the Lake Superior Regional.
