About Us
We are the Lazer Robotics, a team from Newton, Massachusetts, in the FIRST TECH CHALLENGE (FTC). Our team comprises nine members: Jerry Gong, Noah Pytel, Sahil Rathod, Beatriz Almeida, Ellie Kang, Luana Almeida, Eden Pytel, Shira Listokin, and Javi Nashat. Currently, we are competing in our second FIRST TECH CHALLENGE (FTC) season. Over the years, we have achieved world record scores in FIRST LEGO LEAGUE (FLL), including winning the state competition with our Cargo Connect robot and going to Morocco to compete with teams from all over the world. We take great pride in mentoring and inspiring other teams, and we plan to continue doing so in the future.
