Re: YOU Predict the Average Match Score of 2017's Week 1 Regionals/Districts

Considering they have 90 percent shooting accuracy, that's give/take 220 high goals per match, which is 73 points per match.
Show me the robot that can shoot 5 balls/sec at 90% accuracy and I'll show you either a Championship division winner, a liar, or Andy Baker.

But in all seriousness, I think high goal scoring is going to be slow and messy at best for any non-powerhouse team. Small target + defenders + parabolic shot trajectories = chaos.
