The definition of SCORED is in the first post of this thread and it clearly states that to be scored a ball must pass through the Goal Counter.

well, i can point you back to another rule that states "if a robot is in contact with their tower during the finale period, and the other alliance bumps it, they get RED CARDED" the intention of that rule is that hanging robots won't be destroyed, but non hangers can potentially use that to DQ their opponents.
also, the opinion that governs the competition appears to really be the head refs' since they are the ones who interpret the rules and call them differently. the rules were written with a specific intention, but that doesn't mean the intention was explicitly explained in the rules.
