Week 3 Competition Press Release

Denfeld Nation Automation (DNA) Week Three Competition Update 

Greetings,

The week before their Robotics Competition in Denver, Colorado, DNA finished a large goal they had set, building a new robot. After their first competition held at the DECC in Duluth, they noticed a few changes they would like to make. However, these changes were large enough that it would be easier to build a new robot instead. They did this in 10 days, giving enough time for the programmers to change everything and get practice in for the drive team, something required to be a competitive team at competitions.

DNA went to Esko on March 15 and 16 to practice on the ARC field with fellow FRC teams, 5690, 5232, 5653, and 4230. DNA is leaving on Tuesday to go to the FRC competition in Denver, Colorado, where they will be competing with 5690 Subzero Robotics from Esko and 5232 Talons from Hermantown.

DNA is thrilled to continue the 2024 competition season, and to keep up with us and our progress, check out our social media sites!
