KETTERING UNIVERSITY DISTRICT EVENT

The Kettering District event was an exciting time for the Goodrich teams. Team 70 was superb with their unparalleled use of maneuvering skills in attempting to capture a third title as District Champion, but were eliminated in the Semi-finals by a slim margin. Team 494 made the Finals, but unfortunately was defeated by a strong veteran showing on the opposing red alliance. 


Both teams demonstrated an outstanding performance and can be proud of their accomplishments. We took home two trophies, one for being a "District Finalist" and one for capturing the "Image Award" in designing a feminine twin to the Martian logo - the gals shirts for Team 494 have a lady martian sporting lipstick and eyelashes!
