Purposely lodging a ball in an enemy alliance's robot
Hello all,

during our competition I saw a team using a low-built launcher to send a ball into an enemy alliance's robot. I thought they were trying to get a technical foul, resulting in 50 points, instead of a 30 point cycle like they had been doing. Is there anything preventing this? I seem to be completely missing it... Of course, that may not be what they were trying to do, but given the circumstances, it sure looked like it.

Also, nothing was ever called in regards to fouls or tech fouls.

Thank you.
