Since the establishment of the Griffins 1884 team in 2004 and the Phoenix 1797 team in 2016, there has been a complete collaboration between both teams for game analysis, priority list and the prototyping phase. Once the FIRST challenge is released, the combined knowledge and skills of our two teams allow us to create two robots. Over the years, our teams have accumulated a wide range of achievements and awards in FRC competitions.

Coming out of COVID, our robotics program needed to change, adapt, and most importantly, rebuild. To do this, during this competition year (2022 - 2023), we are combining forces and competing as just one team: Griffins 1884, in order to develop our competition experience, pool our mentor resources, and eventually restart Phoenix 1797 in the near future.
