Recap of the Illinois State Championship!

This was the first offseason event Team 2358 attended with our newly rebuilt robot, DRUMROLL. As a team, we decided to completely REBUILD our robot in just 6 weeks, finishing it right in time for the competition. It was truly incredible what we were able to accomplish with a limited number of members and a short timeline.

Now for the State recap! Only 9 of our members were able to attend, but despite our small team, we were still able to become ALLIANCE 5 CAPTAINS, partnering with 2290 FLYT and 5934 Crowbotics. Although we were eliminated in the third round, we are incredibly proud of how DRUMROLL performed in its first appearance, especially with it finishing 9th overall.

Be on the lookout for our official robot reveal coming soon!🥁 FLYT 2290 Crowbotics 5934

Congratulations to everyone who made it to Worlds!! We’ll be cheering you on May 2 🎉

No matter the outcome, every team has already done something amazing this season. We can’t wait to see what happens next—and we’re so excited for the off-season!

Since it’s National Robotics Week, we wanted to take a moment to recognize some amazing teams!

This is the first time in a few years that we’ve given out pit awards. It was truly amazing to create, decide on, and present these bears that we worked so hard on. We had six different awards: Best Robot Design, Best Logo, Best Stand Chants, Best Drive Team Outfit, Best Swag, and last but not least, Best Vibes.

But you can’t win an award based on these qualities alone—you also have to represent the values of Gracious Professionalism and FIRST Core Values.

This was a very tough decision for everyone involved, and it was incredibly difficult to choose only six teams from each of our competitions.

Congratulations to:

🏆 5847 Ironclad and 4646 Wildcard Robotics — Best Robot Design
🏆 7850 Bio-Bots and 1781 Lindblom Electric Eagles — Best Logo
🏆 2508 Armada and 2704 Roaring Robotics — Best Stand Chants
🏆 6420 Fire Island Robotics and 4787 Axiom — Best Drive Team Outfit
🏆 2531 RoboHawks and 7201 Crobotics — Best Swag
🏆 111 WildStang and 9669 Regina Riveters — Best Vibes

We’re so excited to continue this tradition for years to come—and to give our cute little bears new homes 🐻

Happy National Robotics Week!!!

Final day of the Midwest Regional!

First, I want to thank all the teams we were on an alliance with—it was truly amazing working with you, and we hope to be allied again next season.

We had an incredible run, tying for 5th place out of 35 amazing teams! We were also honored to be captains of Alliance #6, competing alongside Team 8880 and Team 3067 Robovikes. It was such a great experience working with both teams and an awesome way to finish the season.

Shoutout to our drive team for wearing their helmets—it was a very last-minute addition, so I’m glad they agreed to at least one photo!

Another huge shoutout to our Impact Presentation group. Even though we don’t yet have a large Impact program, our goal is to continue building it in the years to come. This group—Neil, Danny, and Saachi—did an amazing job conveying our team’s story. Thank you for all your hard work!

Even though this marks the end of Team 2358 REBUILT’s season, it has been an honor working with everyone, and I can’t wait for next season.

To those who are leaving, it has truly been an amazing working with you. We hope you continue with FIRST in the future—and don’t forget to come visit us!

Day 2 of 3 at the Midwest Regional!
Today was part 1 of qualification matches. We had a great outcome with 5 wins and 3 losses, and we’re currently seeded 12th.

Another shoutout to all the amazing teams we were allied with today!

A huge shoutout as well to all the incredible mentors nominated for the Woody Flowers Award. We nominated Casey Stahl for all the amazing work he has put into this team over the years—there truly wouldn’t be a robot without him. Even though he didn’t win, congratulations to and on their new Woodie Flowers win. Woodie Flowers Midwest 2026 finalist Jamie Beedy, 10+ year Mentor of teams 111 & 112 Wildstang and Plus One!

One last thing—we found Casey’s doppelganger from Team 3067. I can barely spot a difference 😂

Tomorrow is the final day of the Midwast Reigonal—We can’t wait! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!
