I was a member of the Planning Committee for the Miner Mayhem 2025 tournament. I participated in weekly planning meetings and, on the day of tournament, managed the robot repair station. Our robot repair station provided teams with technical support and assistance between their matches as problems or damage occurred with their robots.
​
The Miner Mayhem tournament is an annual tournament hosted at New Mexico Tech by the MechE Mayhem Outreach Lab. A majority of the programs that our lab offers to New Mexico students involves building robots and wiring them for combat. We host this tournament so that our groups (and anyone else who wants to participate) can bring the robots they've built to compete with other groups. This tournament started its run in 2021 with just two teams from NMT. In 2025, the tournament hosted over 100 teams across five different weight classes.
