HAILEY, ID — Wood River Middle School’s 8th grade robotics teams delivered an impressive performance last Friday while competing in Idaho’s largest VEX Robotics competition, aiming to qualify for the State Tournament in February.

The event brought together 53 middle school and high school teams from across the state, creating a highly competitive environment. Despite facing many teams that were older and more experienced, three of Wood River Middle School’s six teams advanced to the Finals, a strong showing that highlights the skill, preparation, and teamwork of the students.  

Overall, WRMS teams competed with confidence and determination, demonstrating advanced problem-solving, engineering design, and collaboration throughout the day. Their success reflects the continued growth and strength of the Wood River Middle School robotics program as students prepare for upcoming league events and the State Tournament in late February.
