Team 2252C was composed by Julián Benítez (mechanic), Normarie Román (coach), José Velázquez (programmer), and Danny Miró (driver). This team was in the Rookie Middle School Division. Their robot had a U base with two 4'' wheels and two omni wheels with two servo modules. The gripper was formed of two sets of gears powered with one 269 motor and one slider with another 269 motor that holded the "hand". The "hand" was made with one small plate and three small bars. With the 269 motor, the hand could open and close.
Team 2252C won two awards during the Season; Tournament Champions in their Division at the North Puerto Rico Technology Challenge and at the Latin American Robotics Championship a Judges Award.
Team 2252A was composed of Ernesto Ramos (mechanic), Paola Meléndez (coach), Javier Martínez (programmer), and Nycol Cotto (driver). This team was in the Rookie Middle School Division. Their robot had a U base. The base had two 4'' wheels and two omni wheels with two servo modules. The gripper was formed of two sets of sliders (linear slides) with two 269 motors. These sliders holded the pincers which opened and closed thanks to two gears and a 269 motor. The "pincers" had the mold of the tubes. That way the robot could take more than one tube at the same time but since the pincers were small it could only take two at the same time.

Team 2252B was composed of Thalía Soto (mechanic), Nilka Diane (coach), and David Passapera (programmer/driver). This team was the first one in CIMATEC to compete in the Middle School Advance division. Their robot had a U base. This base had four omni wheels conected to two 269 motors. The gripper was formed of two sets of sliders (linear slides). These, with the help of two gears and a 269 motor, could open and close. The "pincers" with the mold of the tubes. That way the robot could take more than one tube at the same time and score them easily.
