Welcome to the online home of Mountaineer Area RoboticS (MARS), FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC®) Team 2614. We are based in Morgantown, West Virginia, and draw our students from the two local high schools, other local area schools and those who are home schooled. We were founded in 2008 by lead mentors Earl Scime and Phil Tucker, and since then have qualified for FRC World Championship® three years out of four. To learn more about us and what we do, explore our website!
We came to be inspired. We stayed because we are. We will become the inspiration.
