IMAGES: From the BattleCry

Northborough, Shrewsbury, Westborough and Marlborough all have teams (and there are a lot of them) at this weekend's huge robot competition at WPI.

Robots and their builders are spending the weekend at WPI, competing in competitions that show off everything from how well the robot balances to how well it can shoot a basket.

This annual FIRST competition draws hundreds of students from across the state, including teams from Northborough, Marlborough, Westborough and Shrewsbury.

On Friday, the "place was packed like sardines."
