399 newbie mentor here:

I am pretty sure what you saw was 399 catching their own ball. Sometime in the qual matches, we lobbed it over the truss and went under to recover our own by catching it.

This was my first chance to ever see a regional competition, and I was so glad we were matched up. Our strengths complemented each other. your repeatable throwing skill made it easy for our driver to recover the ball quickly. The two catches in a row was amazing! Our driver is really good and I figured it would happen at some point, but wasn't too sure if we could catch the line drive throws. The fact that both were "on the run" blew me away!
