Winning strategy. Score 48 in auto including co-op bridge, alliance shoots the 9 held balls with 35 seconds to spare for 27 more points, then spends last 30 seconds triple ballancing for 40 points.

Teleop is nearly a wash unless their is some ball stealing involved. Holding those balls right before the time when teams need to concentrate on the bridges could work.
Why can there be only one ball on the alliance bridge? I see no reason why robots can't "store" more balls on the alliance bridge... It may not be easy to do, but it is both legal and feasible.
