The Sun River robotics team stamped its tickets to the world competition by taking home the state title during Friday’s championship bout at Montana State University.

Luke Osberg led his ReDNeK Robotics team to a 9-1 record and the Top 3 scores in the FIRST Tech Challenge in Bozeman.  A sister team of local eighth-graders had a good day too, finishing the day as part of the runner-up alliance.

Thirty-six teams from Montana, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming qualified in either November or December events to participate in the daylong championship event.

Montana gets to forward two teams to the Houston World Championship in April and by virtue of being the captain of the winning Alliance, the team, with members from Fairfield, Simms and homeschoolers will represent Montana for the sixth time and the fifth time in the last six years.
