2020 would have been a great year for NRG, but the universe had other ideas. This bot was one of the most accurate and consistent bots of the season, though it never saw any official competitions. We still use this bot for community outreach events.

Beginnings
Beginnings
"In 2001, Mr. Thad Wilhelm, our team advisor, began teaching at Newport High School. After advising a FIRST Robotics team at his previous school, he decided to start one at Newport, too. Thus, the Newport Robotics Group was born.
In our first year, approximately twenty-five members joined the club to participate in public relations, animation, and building and designing the robot. We went to the first ever Pacific Northwest Regional comeptition at the University of Washington. FIRST's annual challenge was picking up balls and putting them in goals. These goals were supposed to be moved into certain scoring areas. Around 35 teams participated in the regional event and we received 5th place. We also made it to the quarter-finals and were presented with the Team Spirit award."
Our Second Year
Our Second Year
"The second year was even better than the first. The size of our club grew to around thirty people and we were able to build a much better robot. We entered a submission for the Chairman's Award and created an animation (unfortunately, it was disqualified on technicalities).
We had a lot of fun at the competition. Although our robot was superior to last year's bot, we had a few unfortunate failures, like our robot being turned off by a falling box. Our team seeded 11th, but we received 6th place and reached the quarter-finals. Our Elimination Rounds alliance included Team 360, The Revolution, which hails from nearby Tacoma, Washington."
Our Third Year
Our Third Year
"Our team now has 33 members, with many veteran members participating in the club since the birth of our club two years ago. We've definitely learned from our mistakes in previous years and reogranized the team into stricter groups and subgroups. We have a leadership council to make sure that everything is running smoothly and everybody knows what they're supposed to be doing. In addition, we've started designing and programming earlier this year.
We're now in the middle of the season right now. Our newest robot, "Rolling Thunder" will compete at the new location for the Pacific NW Regional, Portland, Orgeon. This year's game seems to be even more challenging than previous years. With so many different strategies and options to take, our robot will have to be more versatile - and it is! The competition is coming up very soon, so we're working as feverishly as always!"
