The new school year is upon us and it’s time to get FIRST Robotics Team 467, Center of Mass, organized for the upcoming season. We will be holding our informational meeting on Wednesday September 3, 2025 at Shrewsbury High School in the Bent Presentation Room. The meeting will start at 7pm and should be done by 8:30pm. All interested students should attend with a parent/guardian. Space is limited on the team to 60-70 students.

This past weekend, we competed on the Sosik field at the New England District Championship in Springfield, MA.

This was one of the hardest schedules 467 has seen in a long time, however the team rose to the challenge, pulling various upsets towards the end of qualifying matches. Despite exiting qualifiers in 30th place, our performance was strong enough that the captain of Alliance 8 (The Robocats: Team 1699) picked us as their first round pick. Rounding out our alliance was 58 the Riot Crew.

Last weekend, Team 467 attended our 2nd competition of the year, held on the campus of Western New England University in Springfield, MA.

We had a fantastic event - finishing qualifying matches in 4th place and leading the 3rd Alliance into the elimination round, where we made it to the semifinals before being knocked out. Major kudos to our alliance partners 178 (The 2nd Law Enforcers from Farmington, CT) and 8046 (Lakerbots, from Meredith, NH) for forming such a fantastic New England alliance with us.

This was our final week to work on the robot before our first competition in Southern Maine and team 467 is not stopping.

The mechanical team is working to iron out our climbing mechanism to have a consistent climb, making minor adjustments to the elevator to ensure its consistency for competition, and adjusting the angle of the hopper to ensure that coral won’t get jammed between the effector and hopper.

We are please to share our video submission for this years Impact Award.
