2008 Season

Penguin Empire Robotics was formed late 2007, making the 2008 season our very first. Although we had only a small idea of what the competition would be like and very little experience, our team was overwhelmingly enthusiastic about robotics and 2008 was one of our best years. The 2008 season game involved driving our robots counter clockwise around a track, and picking up and throwing large yoga balls over a truss running accross the track to score extra points. Our team did exceptionally well placing second overall at UC Davis and receiving the Highest Rookie Seed Award.
