Drive Team
The drive team is responsible for remotely controlling the robot during competitions and other events. There are five positions on the drive team:
The drivers are the students responsible for actually controlling the robot. The primary driver controls the movement of the robot around the field, while the secondary driver controls any appendages the robot may have, such as arms, elevators, or shooters if our robot has one. These two students work together to score as many points as possible.
The drive team captain is responsible for leading the drive team. In between the matches, they meet up with other coaches from the alliance to discuss strategy. During a match, they make additional strategy decisions and give information to the drivers.
The human player manipulates game pieces throughout the match. The role of the human player is specific to each game. For example, a human player may enter pieces into the field through a designated station. Sometimes, they will work alongside the opposing alliance's human player, or they will work alone.
The technician is a team member that assists with the setup or troubleshooting of the robot. They help to set up the drivers' station before the match starts, and only interact with the robot before and after the match.
While our drive team is not established yet for the 2023 Charged Up Season, this is our drive team from the 2022 Season. Although we do not have pictures or contact info for our former drive teams, they will always hold a special place in our heart. Once we establish our drive team for the 2023 Season, they will have a place on this page as well!
