^ is that really a possibility? Is putting the trackball on the overpass and just pushing it off again considered a hurdle? Can the ball even touch the overpass when its hurdled?
And then ofcourse can you touch the ball during the hurdling?

Based on the definition from the rules:
HURDLE: When a TRACKBALL CROSSES a FINISH LINE while passing above the OVERPASS and then contacts either the floor or another ROBOT before re-contacting the originating ROBOT.

Above would seem to me to mean you can't set the ball on the overpass, then knock it off. When you add this to the scoring chart that says you get 0 points for knocking a ball off the overpass during the teleoperated period, I am pretty confident this would not count as a hurdle.
