Yes. Make sure your whole team knows about your outreach and can speak semi-intelligently about it.
However, I have heard stories from several years-worth of my students at different regionals saying judges have "interviewed" them
in the bathrooms - so you should always be prepared to answer questions about your team!
As a corollary, make sure your non-robot students have a basic understanding of your robot's functionality. Our non-engineering captain last year claimed to the judges that everyone on the team was instructed on how the robot functioned even if, like him, they didn't work on it. They called his bluff and made him explain the systems. He did a good job!
