I overheard Dean telling Woodie what two mentors were discussing at kickoff...

"Okay, I'll build a robot that your robot can drive up on, and you can score all the balls into the center goal without going over the 60'' mark."

Sounds quite infeasible, and this would only work if one of the two teams were choosing alliances.
infeasible ... maybe ...

But check out this video of two ROOKIES in our VERY FIRST MATCH taking up only one space on the ramp (we're on the bottom) in the 2003 game "Stack Attack".
