Torrey Pines High School Robotics Club

October 15, 2022 – At Cathedral Catholic High School, a regional post season competition was conducted for robotic teams. The Rotary Club of Del Mar and some it’s members support the Torrey Pines Robotics Club. They are team 3647 The Millennium Falcons.

The competition was put on by First Robotics https://www.firstinspires.org/robotics/frc. For short, they are know as FRC.

The robotic goal this year was to shoot as many baskets into the central receiver as possible and then two robots need to hand from bars off the floor before time runs out. Team robots can block other robots from shooting. Teams form alliances of 3 team to compete. The are selected from single team performances.

The team alliance that included the Millennium Falcon got 2nd place, losing 2 out of 3 in the final matches.
