Our Goals

Our goal pyramid is a complete summary of our goals for every season. These goals build off of each other. Starting from the base, which are the foundational goals, and working their way up the pyramid to our ultimate goal of making it to the FIRST Championship.

Our History

The Golden Gears (FRC Team 10021) was founded in 2025 by our head coach Mr. Cromer in order to establish a dedicated robotics program at Guerin Catholic. In our rookie season, we operated out of a small storage space before transitioning this year into a fully equipped classroom and shop. Despite our modest beginnings, we achieved notable success, earning the Rookie All-Star Award at the Indiana State Championship and securing an invitation to the FRC World Championship in Houston, Texas. Moving into a larger workspace marks an important milestone in our development as we continue to expand our capabilities and pursue excellence in engineering, teamwork, and innovation.
