BHS Debuts Video Memorializing 'Scherman' the Robot

The mascot of the Robotics Team at Burnsville High may be gone, but it is certainly not forgotten.

Students recently uploaded a video dedicated to Scherman, a machine built in 2012 for the game "Rebound Rumble." The highlight reel shows Scherman's genesis, the testing process and its triumphant run on the basketball court—where Scherman was a sure shot and even a bit of a wrangler.

Ultimately, Scherman and the team took seventh place out of 65 at the 10,000 Lakes Regional.

"He was a major milestone for the team who, until then, had a somewhat lackluster history at competition," the team writes.  

Scherman's "brain" has been extracted from his "body" for use in the team's 2013 robot, Big Macintosh.
