CT Tech Schools Participate in Robotics Competition

On March 9-11,  three Connecticut Technical High Schools participated in the 2006 United Technologies New England Regional FIRST Robotics Competition at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford, Connecticut. Teams from Cheney Tech, Goodwin Tech and Platt Tech competed in the annual event.

FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a sports-like national competition among robots designed by high school students and professional engineers. This year 40 teams from all over New England and New York competed. See more information about US FIRST.
