TechFire ended the 2014 season with the best international performance to date, finishing as quarterfinalists in the Galileo* division of the 2014 FIRST World Championship.  With over 12,000 students from 38 different countries, this event was truly a celebration of science and technology, showcasing the hard work of our future engineers and innovators.  Team 225 emerged from the qualification rounds with a record of 6-4 and was selected by Team 836 Robobees from Leonardtown, MD to advance to the eliminations rounds.  Along with Teams 1023 Bedford Express from Temperance, MI and 217 ThunderChickens from Sterling Heights, MI, this alliance showed amazing skill and finesse, but lost by the closest of margins in the last quarterfinal match.  View complete results here.

A big shout out to MAR teams 1640 Sabotoge and 2590 Nemesis who both finished as division champions and went on to play in the finals on the Einstein* field. Congratulations to the
2014 FIRST World Champions, Teams 254 Cheesy Poofs,  2848 All Sparks, and 469 Las Guerrillas and to all the other amazing teams who competed at this incredible event.

TechFire is grateful for the opportunity to play on the world stage and would like to thank everyone who made the season and the trip to St. Louis possible.  
After a few weeks of well-deserved time off, TechFire will be back in the shop preparing for upcoming off-season competitions and outreach events.

"Making the Future Brighter, One Student at a Time." THANK YOU for your support!

*The FIRST Championship is the preeminent celebration of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). The names of our playing fields honor some of the greatest scientists and mathematicians. Their work continues to inspire young people of FIRST — our future science and technology leaders.
