Tatlong estudycante at isang guro ng Philippine Science High School – Cagayan Valley Campus ang lumahok sa 12th World Robotics Olympiad na ginanap noong Nobyembre 7–10, 2015 sa prestihiyosong Al Shaqab Equestrian Facility sa Doha, Qatar.

Ang mga nasabing estudyante ay sina Cedric Catacutan, John Paolo Lumanlan at Reymar Tutaan na pawang nasa ika–sampung baitang at si G. Jenshiam Balgua na nagsilbi bilang kanilang tagapayo.

Dinaluhan ng mahigit sa 3000 estudyante na kumakatawan sa 47 bansa ang WRO.

Nasa ikatlong mesa ang grupo sa ginanap na WRO eliminations kung saan ay kasama nila ang ibang mga grupo galing sa bansang Greece, Iran, Japan, Qatar at anim na iba pa.

“Iba yung feeling kasi taga–ibang bansa sila, feeling mo ang gagaling nila pero nung nagco–compete na, parang normal na lang kasi pare–parehas kayo ng ginagawa,” ani Reymar tutaan nang siya’y tanungin kung kamusta naman ang kanilang pakikipaglaban sa mga taga–ibang bansa.

Ang kanilang pakikilahok sa nasabing kompetisyon ay dahilan ng kanilang pagkapanalo sa nakaraang 14th Philippine Robotics Olympiad na idinaos naman noong ika–6 hanggang ika–8 ng Nobyembre 2015 sa SM North Edsa Cyberzone.

Nagtapos sa pangatlong pwesto sa PRO ang Team A na binubuo nina Catacutan at Lumanlan, habang ang Team B naman ay hindi pinalad na makakuha ng pwesto. Ganunpaman, ito ay binubuo nina Precious Jane Guerrero at Tutaan.

Ayon kay Balgua, makikitang interesado umano ang mga estudyanteng nabanggit sapagkat bakasyon pa lamang ay nagsasanay na sila para sa patimpalak. Nagtapos sa pang–40 pwesto sa WRO ang grupo. Ang pangalan ng kanilang grupo ay Pisay 2020.
