A "completed hurdle" needs to start hurdling first. <G12> says the trackball must cross a lane marker before it can earn any points by hurdling or crossing the finish line. So removing the trackball from the overpass at the beginning of the match does not earn any points for hurdling.

The only way for a trackball to earn 12 points is to be supported by the overpass (and not be touching a robot of its alliance) at the end of the match. <G09> says a trackball earns 8 points for being off the overpass at the end of the hybrid period.
