Q170

Q. Regarding possession of opposing alliance's ball: If a robot is attempting to score a 1-pt goal, if an appendage of a defending robot either a) holds the ball from dropping into the top of the goal or b) causes the ball to be "pinned" as it's pushed in the front goal, would it be illegal possession?

A. Yes.
You could still cover the "front" and "side" entrances to the low goal, and I think that very few robots are well equipped to shoot the ball into the top of the low goal.
