The kids at Marietta's Walton High School's Robotics Team vow to try again next year to compete in the world competition for high school robot builders. The team, lead by science teacher Brian Benton, brought their 120-pound robot named Walta-Saurus-Rex to the contest in St. Louis last week where they squared off against about 300 other teams. They faced some early challenges including a broken robot claw and a fire in a mini robot. But they placed 88. Benton said that they did great for their first try at such a large competition.
"We'll be back," he said.
