Oxford High’s TORC 2137 robotics team hosted around 18 other area robotics teams at a Week Zero practice event last weekend.

Students spent the weekend tweaking and programming their team robots in preparation for the season’s upcoming FIRST Robotics competitions.

The practice event also featured a full-size playing field, which allowed the teams to give their bots a test-run before competitions begin.

TORC 2137 heads to Waterford for its first competition of the season on Saturday, March 10 and Sunday, March 11.
