INDIANAPOLIS — It was a great day for local teams competing at the Indiana Robotics State Championship on Saturday in Lucas Oil Stadium. All but two of the 18 teams from Hancock County — all of which were from New Palestine and Greenfield — advanced to the world championships, to take place April 25 through May 4 in Dallas, Texas. New Palestine High School’s head robotics coach, Dave Post, was also honored as Robotics Mentor of the Year. “It was quite an honor,” said Post, who has been coaching robotics ever since he started teaching technology-based courses at the high school eight years ago. Although robotics competitions didn’t exist when his children were young, Post said he’s been having a blast coaching students in a fun pastime that taps into all the learning elements of STEM — science, technology, engineering and math. “I really love doing this,” he said. “I coached athletes when I was younger, and robotics gives a lot of these kids that same exposure to competition and all the great life lessons that brings — how to win, how to lose, how to communicate. It’s just just a great opportunity for these kids to experience.” Post was thrilled to see three of his four teams qualify for the world championships at Saturday’s contest after a fourth team was eliminated in the quarterfinals. “This has been our best year ever. The kids have just done really well,” he said. “What was different about this year is we’ve had several good teams, whereas typically you only have one or two. The beauty of it is that we don’t have any seniors, so hopefully everybody will be coming back next year.” Team members from New Palestine High School compete at the 2023 Indiana Robotics State Championship at Lucas Oil Stadium.
