That should have been a wave-off by the refs, I think... but the refs at CMP weren't very good at signaling to each other so the teams could see from the stands.

What was the violation? I couldn't catch it. Seemed just fine to me.

Did you read the rules again? They require the bumpers of the robot to pass fully between the shields.
