Our team started in 2016, when a group of motivated students petitioned the school to start its very own robotics team. This excited new team set out together to compete against over 200 FIRST robotics teams around the state, many with far superior materials, funds, experience, and manpower. Through sheer commitment, dedication, and willpower, the ragtag rabble managed to piece together a robot that could solidly compete with more veteran teams, and the fledgling team was even awarded the 'Rookie Inspiration Award'. This award is presented to the highest-scoring rookie team in the competition. This was only the beginning of the tERAbytes' success; the team would again defy the odds by reaching the State Championships in 2018, winning the State Championships in 2020/2021, and even reached the FIRST Global Championships at Houston in 2022. {INCOMPLETE}
