FTC State Championship: A Historic Milestone for Holy Gears 🏆🚀

This season reached an unforgettable milestone as Holy Gears competed at the FTC State Championship for the very first time! Making it to States alone is an incredible accomplishment, and our team rose to the challenge with determination, curiosity, and a whole lot of heart.

Like any high-level competition, there were moments that didn’t go exactly as planned—but every mistake became an opportunity to learn, adapt, and come back stronger. Our students showed resilience, teamwork, and maturity well beyond their years, proving just how much they’ve grown throughout the season.

Beyond the matches, one of the best parts of States was the connections made along the way. Holy Gears formed new friendships with teams across the state—and yes… maybe even a future alliance with Apollo, FTC#23410 next season 😄🚀.

We are incredibly proud to share that Holy Gears placed 27th overall and earned the 1st Place Reach Award 🏆—a recognition of our team’s commitment to outreach, community impact, and sharing the excitement of STEM with others.

Most importantly, our kids had an amazing time. They represented Holy Gears with enthusiasm, gracious professionalism, and pride. Every student should be incredibly proud of what they accomplished this season—from our first qualifier all the way to the State Championship.

This season was historic. This team was inspiring. And this is only the beginning. 💛⚙️
