We are a First Tech Challenge team based out of Edison, NJ in the Upper Central Region. The MCA Eagles are currently competing in their second year.
The MCA Eagles were founded in 2023 by students passionate about robotics from the Edison Academy Magnet School in NJ for the Centerstage Season.
MCA Eagles win three matches in their first comp.
In their rookie season regional meet, the MCA Eagles went 7-3, won the Innovate Award, and qualified for states!
The team went 2-3 in the qualifiers and unfortunately did not qualify for worlds. However, the team's rookie season success has given the team confidence and excitement for its second season!
Read about a few of our impactful outreach initiatives to connect with our community!
We gave middle schoolers an opportunity to learn about the inner workings of our Centerstage Robot. We also taught them basic programming and mechanical engineering in robotics
We helped middle schoolers from North Brunswick kickstart their FLL team "Potato Power". We walked them through the processes of a FIRST robotics season. They were able to make states in their rookie year!
We created a youtube channel that posts FTC tutorial guides to aid rookie teams with different areas of FTC.
