D. 6Explanation
No balls are completely in the either rectangular scoring zone, but they do qualify as "Locked-up" in the goals, so BOTH the RED and BLUE alliances get 6 points.
A ball is "Locked-Up" in a goal if any part of it is in the goal.
Specifically: "Locked-up – A small ball is locked up in a goal if some part of the ball is within the two-dimensional space defined by the outer edges of the goal, and not touching a robot of the alliance that the scoring zone belongs to. Note: A goal extends infinitely perpendicular to the playing field surface within the goal boundaries."Rate this question:
