NSPIRING YOUTH: Hay Springs girl having a blast building robots

Hay Springs High School senior Ashley Tobiasson has known for years that she wants to pursue a career in engineering.

She and her teammates have been pretty successful at it, too, and their goal this year is to make it back to the state competition – and maybe even advance to the world competition.
