The Notre Dame Prep Team 33 Killer Bees robotics team worked with the Rochester Adams/Stoney Creek (Adambots) and Rochester (F.E.D.S.) high schools again this year to build a float for the Rochester Hometown Christmas parade held December 8. The float finished first in the high school/college division and also won the Grand Marshall’s Award.
The Bees finished last season flying high at the FIRST Robotics Competition World Championship in St. Louis in April. Team 33 was crowned Archimedes Division champs and second overall in the entire tournament. That was the Bees third divisional championship in 18 years of competition at the world championship and their best finish ever.
This Saturday, Notre Dame is hosting a VEX Robotics Tournament.
