The Megalodons of John Dewey High School (Team 333) have once again proven that they are a powerhouse of talent, grit, and community spirit. Their journey to the finals of the 2026 FRC New York City Regional was a masterclass in perseverance, showcasing the relentless dedication of both the students and their mentors.
Throughout the competition, the Megalodons demonstrated exceptional technical skill and strategic prowess. Getting into the finals at a high-stakes event like the NYC Regional is no small feat; it required hundreds of hours of hard work and late nights in the shop perfecting the robot. The team faced fierce competition, but their ability to adapt on the fly and maintain their robot under pressure set them apart. So much so that they received the Quality Award, where judges recognized all the efforts that were put in to make a robust machine.
GO MEGALODONS!
