The FIRST LEGO League Robotics championship was held Saturday at the Memorial Union. The event was sponsored by UND and the College of Engineering and Mines and put on with the help of many UND student and community volunteers.

Each team displayed its robot’s abilities throughout different obstacle courses and provided information on their creations.

The robotics competition consisted of 38 teams started at 11:45 a.m., and concluded with awards at 4 p.m.

More than 25,000 teams expanding across 80 countries make up the The FIRST LEGO league organization, which includes teams of students between ages 9 and 14 worldwide.
