The Hampton High School Robotics Team took second place in the VA Regional Botball competition, held April 21 in Fairfax Virginia.

The overall winners were determined by double elimination rank, seeding round scores and online and onsite documentation scores. During double elimination, robots from two different teams compete on the game board simultaneously in an effort to score as many points as possible, but also to keep their opponent from scoring. Double elimination placement makes up about one-third of the overall Botball score.
