We kicked off our effort in early September. We set

We signed up for two in-person qualification tournaments in
December and February. We later signed up for a
remote tournament in January. We participated in
several outreach events during 2021 and into 2022,
such as summer camps and Rockville Science Day.
Our design went through many significant changes as
documented in our Portfolios. We qualified for the
Chesapeake regional tournament,
and went on to the world Championship.
In 2021/22, Team 6417 had a record of 25-10-0 at
6 events (this includes a Qualification
record of 17 - 6 - 0 and Playoff record of 8 - 4).
It was a great year!

Makerspace in the Rockville Library. we were
ranked 3rd out of 8.
We were awarded the Think

design and got us ready for the next qualifier.
