About the Team

We have six 4th and 5th grade students on our team. We realize that that's a lot of students for one team, but all of us have our own specific role to help the team succeed. We come from Nappanee, Indiana and attend Woodview Elementary. All of us were split up into smaller sub-teams so that our team could run as efficiently as possible. Halas and Landon are part of the Build and Design Team #1. Finley and Adalyn are part of the Build and Design Team #2. April and Alex make up the Documentation Team, and are in charge of making sure our Engineering Notebook is creative and up-to-date. We absolutely love being 15294D (Eaglebots White)!

About this Season

After a summer camp in July, our team had our first competition in November after we started the official season. It was hectic getting prepared, but we have won several awards (1 Teamwork Champion Award and 3 Design Awards) from the last 4 regional competitions combined. We are currently ranked 12th in Indiana. At the Indiana State Championship, we made the Finals, finished top 20 in Skills (out of 130 teams), and won the Indiana Innovate Award!!!

About Team Sponsor

We have many sponsors, but we are super thankful for TechPoint Foundation for Youth as they are the ones who got us started with their grant. We are also thankful for Bearcat, Challenger Door, Jerry Huff Construction, Lippert, NTA Inc, Metcalf Payne and Bell, ProIT Solutions, ATC, The Papers, Topping Dentals, and Day Fluid Power for providing us with the funds to get team jerseys, extra parts, competition payments, State entry fees, and Worlds. Without them, our amazing program wouldn't be possible.
