Pueblo Robotics Team Wins Again

The Pueblo High Robotics Club won big at the Arizona Vex Robotic Tournament this weekend at Sahurita High School.

Pueblo’s “Robotic Asylum” Robotic Club entered four robots in the Operation Desert Duel at Sahurita High School. The team won 1st, 2nd, & 3rd & 8th place of eighteen teams entered. Though the competition was tough, it was made more interesting for our team when we battled each other for the top three spots!
