WebsiteUtilizing HTML5, JavaScript, Bootstrap, and CSS, students on our team built our website from the ground up. Every page of our website has attention to detail; including optimization for desktop and mobile devices. Through our website, we provide detailed descriptions of our team, provide resources for other teams, and recognize both sponsors and friends alike. Ultimately, the website is the center of our online presence which demands that it be accessible and up-to-date 24/7.
