They competed in a field of 49 teams to achieve their best scores in the robot competition, research project, and a team building exercise.
Both Bacon Bulldogs teams worked very hard to be both competitive and creative. Coaches John Jones and Bryan Landwehr taught the
students how to program a robot, problem solve, and come up with creative ideas to complete required challenges. Julie Trone worked
with the teams to come up with an innovative solution for the First Lego League 2011 theme, 'Food Factor'. Team A chose a solution to
keep cut watermelon fresher longer; Team B chose a solution to keep milk fresher longer. At the competition the judges were very
impressed by the ingenuity and complexity of each teams' solution.
The teams are:
TEAM 'A': Blake Berlin, Nyambura Kimani, Gavin Trone, Tim Valstaad, Cole Perez, and Keller Gonzales
TEAM 'B': Ben Connant, Trevor Merrifield, Jackson Trone, Mason Gomorra, and Liam Flake
