On Thursday, Ben Sewald, 17, cracked open one of the cans.
That night was a celebration for the team of dozens of students at the Mill Creek high school, who celebrated their first-ever world championship victory with an ice cream truck and dares from teammates to sip from the expired Arnold Palmer.

The team’s victory in Houston on April 19 represented years of dedicated hard work from designers who meticulously plan for the challenge, fabricators who build the robots and programmers who tell the robot what to do. The team even has students set aside to take videos and photos of the competitions. For the past three years, winning the whole competition has been the team’s target.
