Jill Peruzzi, Reporter

The Alden Knights Robotics Team won the Connect Award at St. John Fisher College in Rochester on Saturday, December 19th. They are now moving on to the FIRST Regionals in Utica.

The Team won the Connect Award by connecting the dots between Robotics, the community, and the business world. The STEAM Career Fair and Mother Son Night at the Primary School helped to connect all three of these areas. They are also promoting Robotics in the Middle School.

The Alden Knights team is coached by Mr. Turton and consists of:

  • Bryan Brown (Captain)
  • Eric Mattoon
  • Kevin Mychajluk
  • Sara Pasternack (Captain)
  • Richard Pasternack
  • Nick Sacilowski
  • Matthew Tolsma
  • Zachary Varshay
  • Steven Waters
  • Edward Williams
  • James Jablonski
