MVMMS Vex Robotics Team
Competes in State Championship
Saturday, January 7, 2012 - Worcester 


The Melrose Veterans Memorial Middle School Vex Robotics Team will be competing in the VEX Robotics State Championship at Quinsigamond Community College in Worcester on Saturday, January 7, 2012.  Members of the MVMMS Vex Robotics Team include Meaghan C., 8C, and Cloe M., 7A.  The MVMMS Vex Robotics Team created an authentic Vex robot.  The MVMMS Vex Robotics Team will be joined joined by Austin S., a freshman at Lexington Voc Tech and supported by John Wright, Mike Festa, and Mike Groark as mentors.  James Horne was the spark plug for the team.  The MVMMS Vex Robotics Teams is also had help from last year's mentor Kevin Hegarty.

The students on the MVMMS Vex Robotics Team met several times during the holiday break at the ReMax/Heritage office in downtown Melrose, and the Melrose Public library so that we could have a warm place to work while the school was shut down.

The MVMMS Vex Robotics Team has done an awesome job.  They drove the Vex robot around and tested it last night, and it should be able to score points in both autonomous (no human control), and teleoperated mode (human control).  The Vex robot has been built such that it could score all points possible.  For more information, contact Mr. James Horne at melrosefirstrobotics@gmail.com.  Good luck the MVMMS Vex Robotics Team!
