This past Saturday, Mr. Odom and two of our Cape Fear Middle School Grizzly VEX Robotics teams competed against teams from all over the region in Bahama, NC!
Both teams faced some technical challenges, but they showed true Grizzly grit and perseverance. Team 1 secured an impressive 7th place overall, while Team 2 finished 18th out of 20 teams.
The best part? Our students had an absolute blast and are already buzzing with excitement about the next competition! This is what STEM education is all about - learning, growing, and never giving up! 💪
We're so proud of our robotics teams and their dedication!
