The 2024 FIRST Robotics Competition season, Crescendo, was the team’s eleventh season competing.

The Game

In Crescendo, teams collected notes from their loading station and shot them into a speaker or amp. At the end of the match, teams would pull up on a chain and score a note in the trap.

The Robot(s)

CujoZeus

The team’s robot that year was named Cujo. The robot used a swerve drive, had an under the bumper intake and a shooter. The robot also had hooks for climbing, and a swinging mechanism to score in the trap. The team also built an “alternate configuration” for the 2024 robot named Zeus, designed to be used in playoff matches. This configuration did not have a trap mechanism, but was faster.
