Wootton High school's robotic team captain and former Goddard intern, Suresh Nidhiry expressively thanked Dr. Jim Green, Goddard's botball coordinator, for his support. Nidhiry continued by stating, "Our club has more than doubled its size from last year. We have improved our building and programming skills and have introduced robotics concepts to new students. All of our success could not have been achieved if it was not for your (Jim Green) support."

"The Botball tournament last weekend was a tremendous success and I would like to personally thank the mentors, the contributors, the people manning the booths and everyone one else who make this event such a success," said Green.

Botball is a nationwide program developed by the KISS Institute for Practical Robotics. KISS Institute, founded in Reston, Va., is dedicated to linking people and technology through education, outreach and research.
