The Probots
Hard Work Pays Off
At the start of the season, we united through our love of robotics and our determination to solve real-world problems.
We learned how to communicate, divide responsibilities, and trust each other’s strengths as our robot and project evolved.
📍 The Putnam Museum, Davenport
Despite competing in one of Iowa’s toughest regions, we won the Champions Award and advanced to State.
Mechanical failures, coding bugs, and presentation nerves taught us resilience and teamwork.
📍 Iowa State University, Ames
We competed against nearly 50 teams and won 1st place for Innovation Idea.
Even without qualifying at first, we kept improving — and that hard work opened new doors.
We were invited to the FLL Worlds Competition due to a team shortage — a once‑in‑a‑lifetime opportunity.
📍 George R. Brown Convention Center, Houston
We competed against teams from around the world and created unforgettable memories.
We met teams from across the globe, traded pins, and built friendships that will last a lifetime.
We didn’t win first place, but we grew, learned, and proved that dedication always pays off.
Our journey continues as we move into FTC, carrying everything we learned with us.
