Except you can't start with two keepers in your possession so that idea won't work. Also purposely taking a penalty isn't exactly GP. We were disappointed that we couldn't get the second keeper up in a real match however we are elated because we have gotten the second keeper onto the rack at our little practice field time and time again, we might have some video of that somewhere. At first we though our practice rack may have been off which caused our auto to be off on the real field but in reality it is all about positioning. We can do the whole cycle in under 15 seconds consistently but only if we get that second keeper positioned correctly behind the robot.

However we've started to get it down and we feel very confident that we will be able to double score at MARC, so keep an eye out for us there.
