“Being a Gracious Professional involves respecting yourself, your team, other teams, and everyone around you. It is a way of doing things with a competitive spirit, without making anyone feel like a loser. Gracious Professionalism is a way of interacting with other people respectfully, doing excellent work, and promoting teamwork and appreciation of others.”

Our mission

Our mission is to, basically, shoot 9 in. diameter balls into goals. There are two ground goals, two high goals, and two goals off the field, one goal for blue team and one goal for red team. There are four chutes were the balls are stored. We have to release the balls into the field, pick them up, and shoot them into the goals corresponding to our color. You can learn more about this by watching the video posted about how the game is played. We are using a cannon design to shoot the balls into the goals. We plan to be done building by the end of November or early December. We originally broke off into two smaller groups for building, except for our two programmers Sam and Jeremy, with 4 people working on each section, the base and the cannon. Joey, Brandon, Parth and I were working on the base, and Conner, Logan, Anthony, and Ben were working on the cannon. Last meeting, we collaborated to attach the two pieces together. That's what we've accomplished so far. Hopefully we'll get a lot done at our next meeting.
