However, there was no trapping or possession called on the Red Alliance for this action either.

Bolded part is not true. The score wasn't counted because the referees ruled that it was not a blue robot that caused the ball to cross into the goal. If you consider it a score (which I would have.. but I'm not a ref), then it's a perfect example of a score that occurs without possession. "Scored" uses a lower standard than possession, so it's totally within the rules that a robot can score a ball without possessing it.
