Is it possible to shoot the ball with pneumatics?

My team has done some prototyping with some pneumatics to shoot the ball. We used a lever arm but it seem to never get as high as we would like so we have been trying to play with one v. two cylinders. Then I came up with the best way to wire the pneumatics to get the best performance. I haven't yet tested it out but I need help to see if it is even possible. I have attached a diagram for the system. One is the diagram for how its set up and the other is for the shooter. The red is the cylinders. Thanks!
