You would get truss and catch points yet 0 assists. The scoring for 0 and 1 assists just happens to be the same, is all.
OK, let me rephrase part of my question.

Is it possible for a ROBOT completely within the coloured ZONE to SCORE a BALL into a LOW GOAL without that ROBOT POSSESSING it (ie. by a single hit that wouldn't count as 'herding')?
