A team of Navajo high school students will travel to Mexico City next week to represent North America in an international robotics competition, The Associated Press reported Tuesday.
The group from southern Utah was specially invited to the First Global Challenge, which starts on Aug. 14. Teams from more than 190 countries will attend the competition, which this year will focus on energy sources.
The Navajo team has competed in robotics for the last two years, and is among the best in the state despite only 30 students total attending the high school. The students began working on their robot for the upcoming competition in June.
