The Secret City Wildbots drive team, pictured above, prepared for one of five qualification matches on Thursday. The Wildbots were 2-2 at the time, having lost the first two and won the next two decisively.
There was one more qualification match remaining Thursday, five on Friday, and one Saturday. Teams are ranked on six criteria, with rankings changing rapidly depending on the performance of all teams. We won’t know until noon Saturday which teams advance to the elimination rounds.
The Secret City Wildbots are competing in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Championship in the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, Mo., this week. See the FIRST website for more information.
