Why not set up boxy in the home zone next to where the ramps/platforms will be deployed so he can be pushed up before the end of a match? Sure, it'll take a few more seconds, but it'll be worth 30 points.
A somewhat similar display of teamwork can be found in this thread:

Well of course, but the assumption I was making was that this was only a strategy that would have been used if an alliance had 2 dead robots and thus there would not be a third partner to push one dead robot onto a ramp/lift (assuming one of the robots had a ramp/lift).
