For the first time in more than 18 months, the W.A.R. Lords are back to in-person competition. 

On October 9, the Parker’s Robotics team helped produce and participated in Battle at the Border, their annual off-season competition.

 Twenty Robots, fielded by 18 FIRST Robotics Competition teams, gathered at Cathedral Catholic High School to compete for peer awards and to be part of the winning alliance of three robots. 

By the end of the day, the winning alliance was composed of the Millenium Falcons, Team 3647 from Torrey Pines High School, E-motion, Team 2658 from Rancho Bernardo High School, and the Francis Parker W.A.R. Lords, Team 2485. W.A.R. Lords delivered autonomous points, a consistent climb, and substantial defense to help the alliance achieve victory. Additionally, W.A.R. Lords won the peer award for Most Creative Robot. Team 2485’s official season begins in January.
