I think at WPI, especially in the final, a lot of penalties were called because defence was being played by teams that don't usually play defence, haven't played defence or are ill-suited for defence. If you don't have maneuvrability or pushing power, don't defend or you are likely to concede a penalty.

We played defence a couple of times in the qualifications for practice, and we conceded a couple of penalties. By eliminations, we knew how to avoid those penalties.

Human player is important in strategy. Make sure he/she knows the game and strategy well.

Also I found (as Coach) that I couldn't pay attention to our rack at the same time as their rack and watching the human player. The Analyst is actually useful. Who knew?
