On Wednesday, January 3rd 2024, Rebel Robotics alumni visited and met with current team members for this fun night filled with food and games! Alumni dating all the way back to our rookie year in 2008 shared updates on their education and career progress as well as special memories from their time on the team. We ended the night with a game of Rebel Robotics Jeopardy which was really fun for all generations of members.

Rebel Robotics welcomed South High graduate and JZips founder Jordan Harouche, who spoke with students about his non-profit and thanked the team for their recent donation of t-shirts. JZips are functional zipper shirts designed especially for young cancer patients to make accessing medical ports fast and easy during chemotherapy treatments. Jordan's organization has provided hundreds of JZips to young patients, free of charge, in kid-friendly designs that bring a small sense of fun and normalcy to the situation.

World Championships 2023 and Shaan Merchant Named Dean's List WINNER!

Team 2638 were honored to be able to return to the world championships this year! Our excursion to Houston from New York is a great time for bonding and strengthening our team's relationships. Along the way, team members are able to experience new sights and food. While at the world championship, our robot performed well and we were able to collaborate with teams from around the world. An added bonus was for that for the first time, a team member won the Dean's List award. Shaan Merchant was chosen as one of the top ten out of tens of thousands of students that compete in FIRST.

Greater Pittsburgh Regional

Rebel Robotics travelled to Pittsburgh for the first time to compete at the Greater Pittsburgh regional. We were the lucky recipients of our second Excellence in Engineering award of the year. On the field, we were selected to be a part of the seventh alliance. Rebel Robotics fought valiantly to rise through all the rankings before making it to the finals where they were ultimately defeated by the first alliance. It was truly an awesome showing of the tenacity that our team exemplifies!
