The DuBois Area VEX Robotics Teams Recently Competed in The Western PA State Championships
The DuBois Area Middle school team of Derrick Weber, Jack Stringer, and Sean Stringer earned the Excellence Award for overall performance in the competition. The DuBois Area High School team of Peyton Kifer and Justin Rake won the Innovate Award for their “out of the box” robot design.
Next step for these teams and their robots... VEX World Championship to be held in Dallas, Texas in May 2022.
The saying the “apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” is very appropriate as Jack and Sean Stringer are the sons of Atlas Pressed Metals Director of Innovation, Dr. Craig Stringer. Craig leads the Atlas Innovation Team which is focused on delivering enhanced service and solutions through value-added metallurgical knowledge directly to customers.
Developing future generations in technical innovation is part of the Atlas Innovation philosophy.
Pictured below are Atlas employees, Doug Pfingstler, Vice President, Diane Pfingstler, Account Analyst, and Dr. Craig Stringer providing a sponsorship check to the teams to help cover the cost of participating in the World Championship.
