The Phoenix Coding Academy is used to the science and technology of robotics, but they don't have a lot of confidence going into a robotics competition in Los Angeles. MORE ⬇️
“The bar was very low. We were hoping for second to last minimum, have a good time and compete well,” said Amira Olivas, a senior at the Phoenix Coding Academy.“We’re fighting for this workshop and borrowing parts,” according to Javier Osornio, a junior. “The California teams have a lot of funding, lots of tech sponsors but it's hard for us. We’re still struggling to get sponsors to help us get to the competitions.
“So, when they're choosing their alliances and their teams, we were hoping to get chosen,” said Osornio. “But we didn't get chosen. So, we all had sad faces going to eat lunch.” “We had to prepare instantly. We were like alright, we have no room for error,” explained Olivas. “We have to pick it up and we have to go in. There was a lot of anxiety.”
