High schoolers from across Long Island, including students from Longwood and Miller Place, unleashed robots they built and programmed in the annual FIRST Robotics Competition at Hofstra University on Saturday.
Fans cheered and music blasted as 6-foot tall robots battled it out in this year’s event, lifting inflatable tubes onto hooks to earn points.
