If you want "full" 60 point cycles, you will need to throw over the truss and shoot into the high goal. To be the most time-efficient you can be, each robot should ideally only possess the ball in one zone. This would make an "ideal" match flow as follows:
Robot A receives ball from human player in Red Zone.
Robot A launches ball over truss to catching Robot B in White Zone.
Robot B somehow gets ball to Robot C.
Robot C launches ball through High Goal while in Blue Zone.
However, if you replace the High Goal with a Low Goal in that last step, you only lose out on 9 points per cycle.
