Lightbulb Autonomous Assist

Say it's ~3-4 seconds after the start of the match. One red robot(referred to as Robot A) has moved to the red zone and already shot its ball. Another red robot(referred to as Robot B) is still in the white zone.

If Robot B moves to the white zone, gives the bot to Robot A, then Robot A scores, this is an assist, according to the rules(since Robot B had it in white, then transferred it to Robot A in red). This whole process occurs during the 10 second autonomous period.

Given this example, would this count as an assist and be given points? Are assists allowed during the 10 second autonomous period?

EDIT: According to this: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=123969
This goal involves 2 Robots in 2 Zones, meaning it is a 2-Assist, meaning it should give an additional 10 points.
If you were to assign each team a zone for the assist, Robot B could be assigned to white and Robot A could be assigned to red, since it did not go back to white during the assist.
