From the mundane tasks to the technologically extraordinary accomplishments, our team is of one mind and one objective; be the best representative of FIRST. That does not mean simply win at competition. Any team given the proper resources and man power can claim a victory. We are about representing the best that FIRST has to offer and heralding its message to others. We take exceptional pride in our team and its accomplishments, but we know that it’s not the winning and awards, which justifies greatness. Team RICE finds it in our partnership, our comradeship with other teams, our demonstration of gracious professionalism on and off the field, and the sheer thrill of the entire FIRST Robotics experience.
