The first-year Robotics team made up of four male and four female MCPS students, including CHS’ freshman Medha Tumkur, recently won a “Control Award.”

Other awards won include the Finalist Alliance Captain and the Winning Alliance Second Pick.

“[The ‘Control Award’] is an award given to teams who demonstrate good programming techniques, have really well-organized and well-documented software and have good control over their robot in terms of code,” Tumkur said.
