Thank You - Terrier Robotics Team 99

Terrier Robotics is showing their ability and power this season, that has been taken to a new level. Thadeous Kasulka, Kyle Rosendale, Erik Blaser, and Sven Blaser are the members on Team 99, and have worked since august to build and program an amazing robot.
This season has been great for Team 99. They have been unbelievable in competition and are currently sitting with a 37-2 win-loss record. This season the Terrier Robotics Varsity team 99, has taken home three Tournament Champion trophies, the Energy award, Cooperate award; and the Freshman team 99C has taken home two Judges awards, one innovate award, and one tournament finalist award. This last saturday the varsity team also took home the Driver Skills Challenge award with a record setting 103 points. They also had the high score for the day with a score of 89 points, in the quarter finals round. This season team 99 has qualified four times for the VEX World Championships in Orlando, FL. The World Championships will be held April 14-16 and Terrier Robotics is looking to have a strong showing there as well. The team has also been getting increased press including, Front page article for the Redlands Daily Facts newspaper. ABC 7 News has also covered the team, including video of the robot, and interviews which will air tonight at 6:00PM. The school has also been enthusiastic about the teams success and want to see them go all the way. However to be able to attend the VEX World Championships to compete from 400 teams, from all around the world the team needs to raise $5,000. The $5,000 includes transportation (airfare, and rental car), hotel, food, and the registration fee for the team. We therefore need sponsors to help fund this trip, to make it possible. We would like to thank last years sponsors, who helped us out last year to get to the VEX 2010 World Championships in Dallas, Texas. We would also like to thank Bakers who has been a strong sponsor this year. If you would like to sponsor us please contact us.

On Saturday, January 16, 2011, Redlands High School Robotics competed again at Sultana High School for the High Desert VEX Round Up Championship. All three of our teams once again were amazing, finishing all three, in the top three alliances at the end of the day. All of our teams have had to overcome multiple problems throughout the year so far, but we finally fixed them all and performed at the top. Team 99 went undefeated through qualifiers and had over 70 SP points going into the tournament placing us in first. Team 99 was the captain for the first seated alliance partnering with team 1680C from St. Luke School, and 1879D from Sultana High School. Team 99C was the captain for the third seed alliance and partnered with 99B and 1680A from St. Luke School. Team 99 continued excellence throughout the rest of the competition and placed first, scoring over 145 points in the finals match of two games. Team 99 and its alliance members therefore earned the title of Tournament Champions earning, Sven Blaser, Erik Blaser, Kyle Rosendale, and Tad Kasulka the qualification for World Championships the second time this season. Team 99C, and 99B also performed excellent, and placed third at the end of the day after being eliminated in the Semi-Finals. 99C however did not come home empty handed and won the Judges Award. We would also like to congratulate team 951A from Murrieta Mesa High School who received the Excellence award and were amazing opponents throughout the day. We would also like to thank our amazing sponsors once again, for helping fund everything that we do. If you are interested in sponsoring us please leave a comment below, and we will get back to you.
