Trinity School at River Ridge

🤖✨ What a weekend for Trinity Robotics!

From March 26–28, the Trinity Robotics Team 4215 wrapped up an incredible season at the 2026 FIRST Robotics 10,000 Lakes Regional at Mariucci Arena. Competing alongside 50 other teams, students battled it out in fast-paced, high-energy matches where 100-lb robots picked up, launched, and blocked balls in intense 2½-minute showdowns.

This season was truly historic. For the first time in 10 years, Trinity Robotics earned a spot in the playoffs—selected as a first round pick for the 7th alliance out of 8! Even more exciting, their alliance pulled off a huge upset by defeating the #2 ranked alliance in the first round, finishing an impressive 5th overall. 🔥

This achievement is the result of months of dedication—23 students, grades 7–12, and 7 mentors, working four days a week since January to design and build their most competitive robot yet. Along the way, they developed skills in coding, engineering design, CAD, teamwork, fundraising, budgeting, marketing, public speaking, and so much more.

We couldn’t be more proud of this team and everything they’ve accomplished. 👏
