RICHMOND, Va. - Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Commander Rear Adm. Lorin Selby and members of the Orange County High School Hornets are pictured at the 2015 FIRST Tech Challenge Virginia State Championship. Student teams designed, built and programmed their own robots prior to competing against other teams at the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) event. The Hornets scored high enough to win a spot at the FIRST Super-Regional Championship to be held in Scranton, Pa., March 19-21. “FIRST Tech Challenge is a great opportunity for students to get hands-on experience in math, science and engineering,” said Selby. “Programs like FIRST Tech Challenge are absolutely critical in developing and inspiring our nation’s next generation of scientists, engineers and mathematicians.” (U.S. Navy photo)
