The LE Bots are a Vex Robotics team from Circleville, Ohio. This is our fourth year competing in robotics. Our team consists of four teenage boys: Cameron, James, Kenton, and Hugh. Each of these members has a key role to the team.

Cameron is the programming and electrical lead. He hates GUI based programming, so if you want to make him hate you forever, just mention LABView, easyC, or Mindstorm Megabytes.

James is the mechanical lead. The robot is built and driven in his house, so he is often able to mess around with it while we are not available. This allows for him to do a great deal of the tedious building work, which everyone loves.

Kenton is our scouting and fund-raising lead. He contributes about 90% of the money for the team (thank you Kenton), from various businesses around Circleville. As far as scouting goes, he has been working on improving and creating detailed lists of robots, how they would perform with us, and their current ranking.

Hugh is the graphical designer and driving lead. He has spent many hours practicing with the robot, and getting to know it's capabilities. He also put many hours into creating the website, which is what you are looking at right now.
