We'll see... depending on how the rules are clarified in the next few weeks will determine that.

7.3.3.1 ROBOT scoring
<G03>
All ROBOT scores are awarded to the ALLIANCE associated with the scoring ROBOT.
<G04>
During the HYBRID PERIOD, a ROBOT will earn 4 points each time it CROSSES either
FINISH LINE.

<G05> During the HYBRID PERIOD, a ROBOT will earn 4 points each time it CROSSES either
LANE MARKER.

<G06>
During the TELEOPERATED PERIOD, a ROBOT will earn 2 points each time it CROSSES its FINISH LINE.
<G07>
A ROBOT that has CROSSED its own FINISH LINE must CROSS the opponent’s FINISH
LINE before it can score by CROSSING its own FINISH LINE again.
