A major and slightly tense moment in SPIKE history Wednesday when our Chief Inspiration Officer @sullycatcher4 submitted our first-ever application for the @FIRSTweets Chairman’s Award. A three-year “Pizza of Success” plan objective met! Woof!

Our student-driven culture wins again! SPIKE brings home the Prize Flower Award from @FRC341MissDaisy for our pivot to become intentional about our mission, values and entrepreneurship - the third time we’ve been honored for that in four @FIRSTMidAtl competitions this year! Woof!

Tough loss in Semis - by a total of just 1 point in 2 matches. Why they say #OMGrobots is a “sport of the mind.” Thanks mates @FRCTeam1640 & @VulcanTeam1218 and host @FRC341MissDaisy Can’t wait for @FIRSTweets #InfiniteRecharge m.youtube.com/watch?v=1y9PNh…

Thanks - SPIKE is proud to use STEM to push for better #letskicksomeALS
I knew little about #ALS until my 17yo son created this Make-A-Thon and worked w/patients/families. I was stunned to discover how common it is, how few treatments there are. I’m convinced we can all do something to help. #LetsKickSomeALS mercerme.com/local-youth-thi…

And if you don’t think you can do anything to help #ALS patients and families, there’s a group of NJ high schoolers who would beg to differ with you. @293spike ❤️ #LetsKickSomeALS
