Manipulate stretcher (easily even with robot on)
Pick up and score two or three small balls quickly
Balance one or two goals
Place big ball on balanced goal from floor reliably and quickly

Statistics and times (assuming no or minimal interference from other robots):
00:16 go over ramp and place big ball on goal
00:37 go over ramp place big ball on balanced goal and return to endzone
00:52 go over ramp, pick up and score two to three small balls, pick up and score a big ball on
balanced goal and return to endzone (we are still practicing this with our second robot).
