MOUNTAINEER AREA ROBOTICS

Kids from MarsFirst in the process of creating a piece for a robot

Mountaineer Area Robotics program has great success in 2018 with their robot MARVIN XI

MARS is an internationally recognized high school robotics team from Morgantown. MARS builds robots for the FIRST Robotics Competition program. Sponsored by the WVU departments of Physics and Astronomy, Mathematics and the Statler College of Engineering and Mineral Resources, the MARS program is a world-renown FRC program and earned the highest recognition in FIRST robotics in 2017, placing them permanently in the FRC Hall of Fame. Shown in this reveal video is the 2018 MARS robot MARVIN XI build for the game Power Up.
