Student Wildcats of Robotic Design hosted its annual Fall Robot Competition recently, with 'bots battlin' it out in Penn College's Field House.
Top finishers in the 3-pound beetleweight category:
• First – Leftovers
• Second – Boomba
• Third – Deep Stone Lullaby
Winners in the 1-pound antweight category:
• First – Low Ball
• Second – Taipon
• Third – The Minibot
“This event was fun, despite being a bit smaller than usual, due to being close to a couple other events,” said club president Carter R. Benninghoff, an engineering design technology student from Pittsburgh. “We had a few SWORD club 'bots competing in the 3-pound division this time but are hoping to get more in for the event next spring.”
