The following BEST teams show top notch web design skills, good BEST detail, and/or are personal friends of Lebanon Robotics, Tiger Robotics: Each year this team from Texas has a different design. Each year it never fails to look amazing. They have "personality." Go Tiger BEST! Green Forest High School: One of our biggest rivals at NWA BEST, GF has a lot of talent in the robot business and shows moxy with their presentation. Springdale BEST: Another reason to worry about standings, Springdale brings everything to the table in the BEST portion of the competition. If you ever hear techno music and see a lot of Asians raving to it, it's Springdale. Johnson County Homeschool: Younger than most BEST teams, JCH has proven they have what it takes to run with the big dogs, placing high in the FT Regional and participating in FIRST after only their second year in BEST. Fremd High School: Fremd Robotics, our cousins to the north, have a snazzy site and their own message board. Find them at the Illinois hub. Austin Robotics: They won first in web design at Texas and sixth in BEST. With good resources and an Espanol option, this is a must for anyone. Flour Bluff Robotics: Not only is their mascot ALSO a yellowjacket, they made a neat website giving a look at yet another BEST team's capers.
